With a playoff win on the line, Wheeler rose to the challenge on Monday. They blew past the Stafford Bulldogs 10-1. The result was nothing new for the Lions, who have now won 12 games by seven runs or more so far this season.
Victoria Kleeman spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned run on six hits and racked up seven Ks. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in 13 consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Wheeler let Addie Stanley and Morgyn Perkins run wild. Stanley went 3-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs, while Perkins got on base in three of her four plate appearances with one home run and three RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Isabella Deledda, who went 2-for-4 with three RBI and one run.
Wheeler has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 15-9 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.7 runs over those games. As for Stafford, they are on a six-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-7.
As of now, neither Wheeler nor the Bulldogs have any future games scheduled.
