Dayton extended their losing streak to 15 on Saturday, dropping their season record down to 10-16 in the process. They lost 13-2 to the Elko Indians. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Indians this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 5-0 on Friday.
Dayton saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Macie Hannum, who went 1-for-3 with one stolen base and one RBI.
As for Elko, the victory made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 14-12. They might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine games by six runs or more this season.
On Elko's side, they got a great performance from Taylor Hunton as she struck out seven batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off three hits (and not a single walk). Hunton has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in eight consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Addison Seipp was a standout: she went a perfect 3-for-3 with one home run, four RBI, and two runs. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in March. Angelina Jackson was another key player, going 3-for-4 with four RBI, two doubles, and one run.
While Dayton 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.
