Granada Hills Charter had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 16-run drubbing they dealt Taft on Wednesday. The Highlanders put the hurt on the Toreadors with a sharp 20-4 win. The result was nothing new for the Highlanders, who have now won ten games by ten runs or more so far this season.

Addison Moorman looked comfortable as she struck out eight batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than one walk in nine consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Alana Miller was a standout: she went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run, four RBI, and two runs. Those four RBI gave her a new career-high. Lainey Brown was another key player, going 2-for-5 with one home run and four RBI.

Granada Hills Charter always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .675. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Taft only posted an OBP of .227.

Granada Hills Charter pushed their record up to 18-3 with the victory, which was their 14th straight on the road dating back to last season. The road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.7 runs over those games. As for Taft, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-7.

Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Granada Hills Charter will face off against Birmingham at 3:00 p.m. on Friday. As for Taft, they will challenge El Camino Real at 3:00 p.m. on Friday. The Toreadors' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Royals have averaged an impressive 6.3 runs per game this season.
