The Chiles Timberwolves will square off against the Arnold Marlins at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Chiles is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 9.1 runs per game this season.
Chiles is probably headed into the matchup with a chip on their shoulder considering Arnold just ended the team's four-game winning streak last Tuesday. They took a 7-3 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Marlins.
For Arnold's part, Ryleigh Pittman spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned runs on five hits.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Hayley Sexton, who fired off two home runs, three runs, and four RBI while going 4-for-4. Those two home runs gave her a new career-high. Laela Kern was another key player, getting on base in all four of her plate appearances with one run.
They weren't the only ones working in the home run department: Arnold lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That's the most home runs they've managed all season.
Arnold pushed their record up to 12-7 with the win, which was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season. The home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.9 runs over those games. As for Chiles, their loss dropped their record down to 12-3.
Friday's game might come down to which pitcher can control the ball better. Chiles has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .433. However, it's not like Arnold struggles in that department as they've averaged .458. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
