Nobody could stop Ava Wombles on Saturday as she struck out eight batters over seven innings while giving up four earned runs off ten hits (and only one walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her tenth in a row with two or fewer walks. On the year, she has been strong no matter where she plays. On the mound, she has an ERA of 1.87 over 101.1 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat she has slashed 0.542/0.662/0.833 with 34 runs, plus 17 stolen bases.
Looking ahead, Wombles and Pleasant Hill have the luxury of staying home for another game and will welcome Barry Western at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Wolves couldn't take home the W the last time they played the Wildcats, but Wombles was still cooking: she didn't allow a single earned run while striking out eight over six innings pitched. Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
