Crater is 8-2 against Thurston since May of 2019 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Tuesday. The Comets will take on the Colts at 5:00 p.m. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as Crater comes in on 12 and Thurston on nine.
Two must be Crater's lucky number: they beat Eagle Point with that score not once but twice on Friday. The Comets beat the Eagles by the very same score they won with in their prior game: 2-1.
Meanwhile, it's playoff time, and Thurston had no trouble coming through when it counted. They blew past Wilsonville 12-2 on Friday. Considering the Colts have won 13 contests by more than five runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Kasey Ogan spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and one unearned) run on six hits.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Gabriella Montes, who went 2-for-3 with one home run, four runs, and two RBI. Those four runs gave her a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Kassy Anderson, who went 1-for-3 with one home run and four RBI.
Crater pushed their record up to 20-8 with the victory, which was their eighth straight at home. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.9 runs on average over those games. As for Thurston, their victory bumped their record up to 23-5.
Crater came out on top in a nail-biter against Thurston in their previous matchup back in May, sneaking past 8-7. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Comets since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
