It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Hicks had no problem doing just that on Friday. They never let Family Community Christian get on the board and left with an 11-0 win. The Pirates might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 16 games by six runs or more this season.
Courtlyn Dousay was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, keeping things locked down with no earned runs or hits over five innings pitched. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in six consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, firing off two home runs and five RBI while going 2-for-3. That's the most home runs she has posted since back in March.
In other batting news, Perri Fredieu was excellent, going 2-for-3 with two RBI, one run, and one double. Another player making a difference was Abby Addison, who got on base in all three of her plate appearances with two runs.
Hicks' victory was their 14th straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 20-3. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.2 runs over those games. As for Family Community Christian, their defeat ended a five-game streak of away wins and brought them to 16-6.
Looking ahead, Hicks will take on Quitman on Friday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Pirates 2.7, the Wolverines 3.6) so any runs scored will be well earned. Family Community Christian does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
