The Angleton Wildcats will head out on the road to challenge the Sterling Rangers at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Angleton is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 6.2 runs per game this season.
Last Thursday, it was close, but Angleton sidestepped Texas City for a 6-5 win. The victory made it back-to-back wins for the Wildcats.
Lily Soliz and Lily Calderon did most of the damage at the plate: Soliz went 2-for-4 with one home run and two RBI, while Calderon got on base in three of her four plate appearances with one home run and two runs. That's the most runs Calderon has posted since back in March. Gracie Walker was another key player, going 1-for-2 with two RBI and one double.
They weren't the only ones working in the home run department: Angleton lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That's the most home runs they've managed all season.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Sterling). They blew past Lee 25-13 last Tuesday. The Rangers might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine games by seven runs or more this season.
