PINSON The Springville softball team needed a couple innings to find its offense, but once the Tigers figured things out, they poured it on.
Springville bopped 19 hits, including five doubles and a pair of home runs to capture its third win of the season a 15-2 run-rule job at Pinson Valley (3-3) on Thursday night in six innings.
Tigers righty Bella Bullington tossed all six frames, holding the home team to no earned runs on five hits, one walk and seven strikeouts. She sat 20 of the 26 batters she faced and surrendured her only two runs in the bottom of the sixth off a throwing error on a Sasha Hughes grounder to third, setting the final score at 15-2.
