She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in ten consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, getting on base in all three of her plate appearances with three runs and one stolen base. Those three runs gave her a new career-high.

Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games.
