Kapa'a had already won six in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 12.5 runs) and they went ahead and made it seven on Wednesday. They walked away with a 10-5 win over the Waimea Menehunes. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last eight times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.

Karlee Rose Keale spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned (and three unearned) runs on six hits and racked up 11 Ks. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than one walk in five consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Charlize Kenney was incredible, going a perfect 4-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI. She also put up a stolen base, which was her first of the season. Another player making a difference was Sienna Yamashita, who got on base in two of her four plate appearances with two stolen bases and three runs.

Kapa'a's victory was their seventh straight at home, which pushed their record up to 7-1. That said, the team wasn't facing the toughest opposition over that stretch, as it included 0-4 Kauai and 1-6 Waimea (their opponents had an average overall winning percentage of 10.9% over those games). As for Waimea, they are on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-6.

Looking ahead, Kapa'a will look to defend their home field on Saturday against Kauai at 10:00 a.m. Waimea does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
