Savannah Stoker turned in nothing short of a gem in Friday's second game: she struck out ten batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off three hits (and only one walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her fourth in a row with more than five innings. This year, Stoker has been strong no matter where she plays. On the mound, she has an ERA of 4.95 over 63.7 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat she has slashed 0.459/0.524/1.095 with 37 runs and just as many RBI and 9 home runs.
Stoker's strong effort led Lowry over Spring Creek and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 11:00 a.m. in Saturday's first game. Stoker has dominated as far as walks are concerned (she's averaged 1.5 per game this season), but she's got her work cut out for her considering Spring Creek has only allowed 3.13 per game this season.
