Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Overland). They put the hurt on the Jefferson Saints with a sharp 21-5 win on Saturday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.
Michaela Halton made a splash while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, tossing 2.2 innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. Halton was also stellar in the batter's box, going a perfect 3-for-3 with one home run, four runs, and four RBI. She also put up a triple, which was her first of the season.
In other batting news, Elbany Martinez was a standout: she went a perfect 2-for-2 with four RBI, two runs, and one triple. Sasha Davis was another key player, going a perfect 2-for-2 with three runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.
