That's the most strikeouts she has posted since back in March. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with one triple, two RBI, and one run. That run was her first of the season.

Wilbourn wasn't the only one making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Lillian Mattox, who went 1-for-3 with two RBI.

Grenada is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-8 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games. As for Yazoo County, with the loss, they broke their five-game winning streak and moved their record to 18-5.
