Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Sebastopol walked away with it. Everything went their way against the Ingomar Falcons on Saturday as they made off with a 13-4 win. Considering the Bobcats have won 15 matches by more than six runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.

Savannah Crout made a splash no matter where she played. She struck out seven batters over seven innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off six hits (and only one walk). She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than one walk in five consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-5 with two RBI and one double.

In other batting news, Sebastopol let Kadence Robertson and Emma Smith run wild. Robertson went 3-for-5 with three runs and one double, while Smith got on base in four of her five plate appearances with two RBI and one run. Those three runs gave Robertson a new career-high. Jaylee Coleman was another key player, going 3-for-5 with three RBI and one run.

Sebastopol kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 20 hits. That's the most hits they've managed all season.

The victory (which was Sebastopol's seventh in a row) raised their record to 25-4. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.9 runs over those games. As for Ingomar, their defeat ended a five-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 11-7.

Coming up, Sebastopol will head out on the road to challenge Eupora at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Eagles will roll in looking for their sixth straight victory, something the Bobcats surely won't give up without a fight. Ingomar does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
