After having lost a blowout in their previous game against Allen Park, Roosevelt was happy to have turned things around on Wednesday. They never let the Taylor Griffins get on the board and left with a 10-0 win. The Bears might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 12 contests by six runs or more this season.

Devlyn Massengill and Brooklyn Chlipala did most of the damage at the plate: Massengill got on base in all three of her plate appearances with two runs and one RBI, while Chlipala went 2-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and one double. Shaylan Gourlay was another key player, going 2-for-4 with one triple and one run.

Roosevelt always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .536. They are a perfect 8-0 when they post an OBP of .513 or better.

Roosevelt is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five games. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-7 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.2 runs on average over those games. As for Taylor, they dropped their record down to 7-9 with the loss, which was their fourth straight on the road.

We've got plenty of inter-league action coming up soon. Roosevelt is set to take on their familiar foe Lincoln Park at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. Meanwhile, Taylor will square off against rival Anderson at 4:30 p.m. on Monday.
