The Hawks came up short against the Bengals, falling 24-17. Despite running the score up even higher than they did in their prior game on Tuesday (ten), the Hawks still had to take the loss.
Katie Dewey made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and got on base in all five of her plate appearances with two stolen bases, three RBI, and two runs. Ada Blakemore also deserves some recognition as she hit her first triple of the season.
This is the second loss in a row for Lakeland and nudges their season record down to 6-9. Those defeats can't be blamed on the team's hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 13.5 runs over those games. As for Lewiston, they moved to 7-10 with that victory, which also ended their four-game losing streak.
While Lakeland 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.
