There's no place like home for Liberty, who bounced back after a loss on the road on Tuesday. They won by a run and slipped past the Pinnacle Pioneers 4-3. The victory was some much needed relief for the Lions as it spelled an end to their four-game losing streak.

Mckinley Duce spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned runs on nine hits and racked up seven Ks. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't tossed less than seven strikeouts in three consecutive appearances.

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Voilet Mitchell, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run and two runs.

Liberty's win bumped their record up to 14-12. As for Pinnacle, their defeat ended a six-game streak of away wins and brought them to 17-8-1.

Liberty didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next contest, an 11-5 victory against Hamilton on the 24th. As for Pinnacle, they will challenge Perry at 3:45 p.m. on Monday. The Pumas' pitching crew has only allowed four runs per game this season, so the Pioneers' hitters will have their work cut out for them.
