Mackenzie Dean posted a new career-high in strikeouts on Saturday. She didn't allow a single earned run over seven innings pitched, good enough for us to rate the performance as the best she's had all season long. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in nine consecutive appearances.

Dean's strong effort led Bella Vista over McClatchy and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday. Dean's big game helped the Broncos snap a three-game streak of losses on the road. Can Dean lead the Broncos to another win and start a streak of a new kind?
