Lodi was led to victory by Hannah Escalante, who turned in her biggest game of the season on Tuesday. Escalante was dynamite, striking out ten batters over eight innings while giving up just one earned run off four hits (and only one walk). She has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than one walk in three consecutive pitching appearances.
Escalante and Lodi will head out on the road to challenge Tokay at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. Escalante has dominated as far as earned runs are concerned (she's averaged 0.8 per game this season), but she's got her work cut out for her considering Tokay has only allowed three per game this season.
