Taylor DeSmith was unstoppable on Thursday, striking out 11 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off five hits (and only one walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her fourth in a row with one or fewer earned runs. On the year, she has been strong no matter where she plays. On the mound, she has an ERA of 1.50 over 28 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat she has slashed 0.375/0.474/0.625 with 11 RBI.
Coming up, DeSmith and Mt. Vernon will challenge Mt. Carmel at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. DeSmith had to take a defeat the last time the two teams duked it out, losing their match back in April of 2024 10-5. Could another big game from her be enough to change the outcome this time?
