Grace Barton Game Report: @ Steelville

Grace Barton was a major factor in West County's victory over Steelville on Tuesday. Barton wasn't messing around, striking out eight batters over four innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits (and not a single walk). The pitching appearance was her fourth straight with two or fewer walks.

Looking ahead, Barton and West County are taking a road trip to take on Kingston at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. The last time Barton duked it out with the Cougars (back in March of 2024), the Bulldogs came out on top by a score of 19-4. Will another strong game from Barton be enough to do it again?
