Pelahatchie won the last time they faced McLaurin and things went their way on Monday too. The Chiefs blew past the Tigers 13-1. The result was nothing new for the Chiefs, who have now won nine matches by eight runs or more so far this season.
Ava Till was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out nine batters over four innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in three consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, scoring a run while getting on base in three of her four plate appearances.
In other batting news, Khloe McLaurin was incredible, scoring three runs and stealing three bases while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. That's the most stolen bases she has posted since back in February. Emalyn Waters was another key player, scoring a run while going 1-for-2.
Pelahatchie always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .733. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as McLaurin only posted an OBP of .133.
The win made it two in a row for Pelahatchie and bumps their season record up to 11-6. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 4 runs in those games. As for McLaurin, their defeat ended a three-game streak of away wins and brought them to 6-11.
Looking ahead, Pelahatchie will challenge Loyd Star at 2:00 p.m. on Friday. The Chiefs' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Hornets have averaged an impressive 7.7 runs per game this season. McLaurin does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
