With a playoff win on the line, Rouse rose to the challenge on Saturday. They never let the Tivy Antlers get on the board and left with a 9-0 victory. The result was nothing new for the Raiders, who have now won nine matches by eight runs or more so far this season.
The result came thanks to Blakely Barber's shutout, as she gave up just two hits and racked up 13 Ks. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in ten consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Rouse got a massive performance out of Madilynn George, who fired off two home runs, three runs, and three RBI while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. The team also got some help courtesy of Mariah Collins, who went 3-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and one double.
They weren't the only ones working in the home run department: Rouse lost a few balls and finished the game with three home runs. That's the most home runs they've posted since back in March.
Rouse's win was their seventh straight at home, which pushed their record up to 18-9-2. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.6 runs on average over those games. As for Tivy, they now have a losing record of 13-14.
The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Rouse beat the Antlers by a score of 9-0 later that day.
