Jill Allred spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and one unearned) run on six hits and racked up six Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in six consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Royal saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Lily Delarosa, who went 2-for-3 with two RBI.
Royal is on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last nine matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 18-4 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games. As for Klahowya, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 12-11-1.
As of now, neither Royal nor the Eagles have any future games scheduled.
