Grayling came tearing into Saturday's match with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 5.5 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 3-2 W against the Boyne City Ramblers. This was a revenge game for the Vikings: when they faced off against the Ramblers back in April, they had to take a 2-1 loss.
Jessica Campbell was a major factor no matter where she played. She struck out ten batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off four hits (and only one walk). That's the most strikeouts she has posted since back in April. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going 2-for-3 with one home run, two runs, and one triple.
Campbell wasn't the only one making solid contact as three players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Cali D'Amour, who went 1-for-3 with one stolen base and one run. D'Amour is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last three games she's played.
Grayling's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 19-6-1. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.3 runs on average over those games. As for Boyne City, they moved to 10-17 with that defeat, which also ended their three-game winning streak.
Coming up, Grayling will square off against Gladstone on Saturday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Vikings 2.8, the Braves 2.3) so any runs scored will be well earned. Boyne City does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
