Woodlawn came tearing into Monday's matchup with 14 straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 5.1 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 7-5 win over the Warren Lumberjacks. This was a revenge game for the Bears: when they faced off against the Lumberjacks back in March, they had to take a 7-3 loss.

Laci Rauls looked comfortable as she struck out six batters over 3.1 innings while giving up three earned (and one unearned) runs off four hits (and not a single walk).

On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Kendall Tooke, who went 2-for-3 with one home run, two runs, and one stolen base. That home run marked the first that she has launched this season. Macy Harrison was another key player, going 2-for-4 with one run and one double.

Woodlawn kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That's the most hits they've managed all season.

Woodlawn's victory was their eighth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 24-5. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.6 runs over those games. As for Warren, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 11-4.

Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Woodlawn will welcome Parkers Chapel at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. As for Warren, they will be playing in front of their home fans against Crossett at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Lumberjacks' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Eagles have averaged an impressive 9.8 runs per game this season.
