Washington Union and Immanuel are an even 5-5 against one another since March of 2017, but likely not for long. The Panthers will head out to face off against the Eagles at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. Washington Union is coming into the contest on a three-game losing streak.
Washington Union's last matchup with Exeter could've gone either way, but unfortunately the same can't be said for the pair's match on Tuesday. The Panthers lost 8-1 to the Monarchs. Surprisingly, this marked the Panthers' fourth straight game in which the away team has come away the victor.
Callie Flores spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned (and six unearned) runs on four hits.
On the hitting side, Washington Union saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Zoe Freitas, who got on base in three of her four plate appearances with one run.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Immanuel). Their pitcher stepped up to hand Central Valley Christian a 24-0 shutout on Tuesday. The Eagles might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won six games by ten runs or more this season.
Amanda Herrera was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only one hit while striking out seven over five innings pitched. Herrera was also big at the plate, going 2-for-5 with three RBI and one run. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in March.
In other batting news, Addison Efird was incredible, firing off two home runs, five RBI, and three runs while going 3-for-4. Those three hits gave her a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Natalia Delgadillo, who went 4-for-5 with five runs and one stolen base.
Immanuel was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .512. The team's really been improving in that area: they've now improved their batting average total in three consecutive contests.
Washington Union's loss dropped their record down to 5-12. As for Immanuel, their record is now 12-5-2.
Washington Union might still be hurting after the 12-0 defeat they got from Immanuel in their previous meeting on April 2nd. Can the Panthers avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
