Sanderson had no answer to Layce Chappell on Monday as she struck out 13 batters over seven innings while giving up two earned runs off eight hits. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her third in a row with more than six strikeouts. This season, Chappell has an ERA of 5.46 over 16.2 innings pitched.
Chappell's strong effort led Cardinal Gibbons over Sanderson and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Cardinal Gibbons is 9-1 against Sanderson going back to March of 2018, a lead they'll look to extend.
