Lawton won the last time they faced Bloomingdale and things went their way on Monday too. The Blue Devils blew past the Cardinals 12-1. Considering the Blue Devils have won six contests by more than five runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
Allison Murphy and Paityn Beam made a big impact while hitting and pitching. Throwing, Murphy struck out eight batters over four innings while giving up just one earned run off five hits (and only one walk). Meanwhile, Beam pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Those eight strikeouts gave Murphy a new career-high. At the plate, Murphy went a perfect 3-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs, while Beam went a perfect 1-for-1 with two runs and two RBI. That home run was Murphy's first of the season.
In other batting news, Payton Potter was incredible, going 3-for-4 with three RBI, two runs, and one double. Another player making a difference was Aubri Conklin, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs and one RBI.
Lawton always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .514. They are 7-2 when they post an OBP of .513 or better.
The victory made it two in a row for Lawton and bumps their season record up to 7-12. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.5 runs over those games. As for Bloomingdale, they are on a 12-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-7.
Lawton will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Cardinals: the pair will be back at it again later today.
