Southwest had already won three in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 15.3 runs) and they went ahead and made it four on Friday. They blew past the Miami Stingarees 18-3. The Eagles have seen this before: they got the W the last time they saw the Stingarees, too.

Tatiana Perez made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run over four innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, scoring three runs and stealing a base while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances.

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Ami Casteleiro, who went 2-for-4 with one home run, six RBI, and two runs. That home run marked the first that she launched this season. Shantell Valle was another key player, going 2-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs.

Southwest lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That's the most home runs they've posted since back in April of 2024.

Southwest's victory was their sixth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-3. Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.7 runs on average over those games. As for Miami, their defeat dropped their record down to 9-2.

Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Southwest will square off against TERRA Environmental at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. Southwest's pitchers better be ready for this one: TERRA Environmental has averaged an impressive 15.3 runs per game this season. As for Miami, they will face off against JC Bermudez Doral at 5:30 p.m. on Monday.
