Lakeview had to hit the road for their first game and sadly it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They fell just short of the Modoc Braves by a score of 15-13 on Wednesday. Lakeview was given a dose of their own medicine in this game as Modoc apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in April of 2023.
For Modoc's part, Caelli DePaul made a big impact while hitting and pitching. She struck out nine batters over seven innings while giving up two earned (and 11 unearned) runs off six hits. DePaul has been consistent recently: she hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts every time she's pitched this season. DePaul was also stellar in the batter's box, scoring four runs while getting on base in all five of her plate appearances.
In other batting news, Modoc got a massive performance out of Faith Marquez, who went 2-for-5 with four RBI, two runs, and a stolen base. Julianna Minto was another key contributor, going 3-for-5 with three RBI, two runs, and a triple.
The win (which was Modoc's third in a row) raised their record to 3-0.
Lakeview didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next game, a 17-5 defeat vs. Marshfield on the 16th. Modoc has also already played their next matchup, a 20-0 victory against Portola on the 14th.
