Recap: Circle Thunderbirds vs. Chaparral Roadrunners
Circle had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Chaparral Roadrunners a 22-0 shutout on Tuesday. That's more bragging rights for Circle, who also won the pair's last head-to-head.
Whitney Wilbur was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (and not a single walk). Wilbur was also big at the plate, scoring three runs while going 2-for-3.
In other batting news, Circle got a massive performance out of Lauren Swilley, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 3-for-4. Brynne Bowman was another key contributor, scoring two runs while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances.
Circle will have a chance to go back-to-back against Chaparral: the pair will be back at it again later today.
