Licking had already won three in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 12 runs) and they went ahead and made it four on Wednesday. They came out on top against the Dixon Bulldogs by a score of 14-9. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Wildcats also won the last time the pair played back in March of 2024.
Zoey Dawson was incredible, going 3-for-5 with one home run, three stolen bases, and three runs. Alaina Rogers also deserves some recognition as she hit her first double of the season.
Dawson wasn't the only one making solid contact: Licking kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in five consecutive contests.
Licking pushed their record up to 6-3 with the win, which was their fifth straight on the road. The road victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 18.4 runs over those games. As for Dixon, they are on a four-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-3.
Looking ahead, Licking will venture away from home to take on Cabool at 4:30 p.m. on Friday. As for Dixon, they will welcome Steelville at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. The Cardinals have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 15.43 runs per game on average), something the Bulldogs will no doubt try to take advantage of.
