Maumee waltzed into their matchup on Thursday with three straight wins... but they left with four. They blew past the Rossford Bulldogs 10-2. The Panthers have seen this before: they got the W the last time they saw the Bulldogs, too.
Hannah Ruiz spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and one unearned) run on six hits and racked up six Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Taylor Smith, who went 3-for-4 with one home run, four RBI, and two runs. The team also got some help courtesy of Reign Hurt, who went 2-for-4 with two RBI and one double.
Maumee was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .382. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .382 or higher in three consecutive contests.
Maumee pushed their record up to 7-4 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.0 run on average over those games. As for Rossford, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 3-5 record this season.
We've got plenty of inter-conference action coming up soon. Maumee will challenge rival Eastwood at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday. Meanwhile, Rossford is set to square off against their familiar foe Otsego at 4:45 p.m. on Monday.
