Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Logansport walked away with it. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Northwestern Tigers a 10-0 shutout on Tuesday. The result was nothing new for the Berries, who have now won 14 contests by eight runs or more so far this season.
Gracie Risley made a big impact while hitting and pitching. She kept things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out six over five innings pitched. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in nine consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going a perfect 3-for-3 with one run.
In other batting news, Adrienne Scott was incredible, going a perfect 3-for-3 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one triple. Those two stolen bases gave her a new career-high. Maddy Baumgardner was another key player, going a perfect 1-for-1 with three RBI, two runs, and one stolen base.
Logansport always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .633. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Northwestern only posted an OBP of .000.
Logansport has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 15 of their last 17 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 24-4 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.2 runs over those games. As for Northwestern, with the defeat, they broke their three-game winning streak and moved their record to 10-15.
Coming up, Logansport will take on Peru at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. The Berries' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Tigers have averaged an impressive 6.3 runs per game this season. Northwestern does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
