Whitney Burns put up the most strikeouts she's had since back in April on Monday. She struck out eight batters over seven innings while giving up five earned (and two unearned) runs off seven hits. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in nine consecutive appearances.

Burns' effort led Covington over Botkins and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Trojans are limping into the matchup having lost four straight on the road. There's no doubt they're looking for a change of fortune, but will Burns and the Buccaneers have enough to stop it?
