It may have taken eight innings to finish the job, but Peebles ultimately got the result they hoped for on Tuesday. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with an 8-7 win over the Eastern Warriors. The victory was just business as usual for the Indians, who after four games remain undefeated this season.
Kaelyn Musser spent all eight innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned (and four unearned) runs on six hits and racked up seven Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than seven strikeouts any time she's pitched this season.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Jerzi Tong, who went 3-for-4 with two RBI, one run, and one double. Kendall Young also deserves some recognition as she hit her first double of the season.
