It's hard to turn regular season success into postseason wins, a fact Ketchikan can now relate to. They lost 9-2 to the Sitka Wolves on Friday. Having soared to a lofty 14 runs in the game before, the Kings couldn't push the score so high this time.
Mylee Gray was huge no matter where she played even without the win. She looked comfortable on the mound, tossing three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. That's the fewest hits she has allowed since back in April. She was even better at the plate, going 2-for-3 with one home run and two RBI. That home run marked the first that she has launched this season.
Gray wasn't the only one making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Mariah Pechay-Austin, who went 2-for-4 with one run.
Ketchikan has also been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 15-18-2 record this season. As for Sitka, the victory (which was their sixth in a row) raised their record to 20-14-4.
Looking ahead, Ketchikan will face off against Delta at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. The Huskies have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 9.05 runs per game on average), something the Kings will no doubt try to take advantage of.
