Menchville came tearing into Tuesday's game with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 8.3 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They were the clear victors by a 9-1 margin over the Denbigh Patriots. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Monarchs also won the last time the pair played back in May of 2024.
Taylor Twitchell (2027) spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered a run (which was unearned) on three hits and racked up 15 Ks. Those 15 strikeouts set a new season-high mark for her.
At the plate, Rashani Sackey (2026) was incredible, firing off two home runs, five RBI, and three runs while going 3-for-4. Those three runs gave her a new career-high. Mikaylah Franco (2026) was another key player, going 2-for-4 with two RBI.
They weren't the only ones working in the home run department: Menchville lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That's the most home runs they've managed all season.
Menchville pushed their record up to 12-6 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.3 runs on average over those games. As for Denbigh, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 10-13.
Menchville will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Patriots: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday.
