Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Patterson). They were the clear victors by a 19-2 margin over the Sierra Timberwolves on Thursday. Considering the Tigers have won five matches by more than six runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.
Isabelle Lopez was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off one hit. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in 11 consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, scoring a run while going 2-for-4.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Elizabeth Zavala, who went 3-for-4 with one home run, four runs, and five RBI. Those five RBI gave her a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Jazmine Isom, who got on base in three of her five plate appearances with four runs, one triple, and one RBI.
Patterson always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .634. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
