Thornridge had lost 13 straight at home dating back to last season, but on Monday they dropped their record down to 0-8 to make it 14. They lost 17-0 to the Kankakee Kays. If the Falcons were looking for revenge after losing 17-0 to the Kays when the teams met back in May of 2024, then they'll just have to keep looking.
As for Kankakee, they have been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 10-8 record this season. Considering they have won nine games by more than nine runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
For Kankakee's part, Adleigh Cunningham made a splash no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (and not a single walk). Cunningham has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with two runs. Those two hits gave her a new career-high.
In other batting news, Kylie Glogowski was a standout: she went a perfect 3-for-3 with two triples, three runs, and two RBI. Those two triples gave her a new career-high. Calleigh Moody also deserves some recognition as she launched her first home run of the season.
While Thornridge had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
