Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only West Linn walked away with it. They blew past Nelson 18-5 on Monday. Considering the Lions have won 11 games by more than eight runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
Meadow Sanborn made a splash no matter where she played. On the mound, she kept things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out eight over 4.1 innings pitched. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in 11 consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with one home run and three RBI. Those two hits gave her a new career-high.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Emily Sakys, who went 3-for-5 with one home run, six RBI, and three runs. That's the most runs she has posted since back in April. Emery Curtis was another key player, going 2-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and two RBI.
West Linn always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .622. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Nelson only posted an OBP of .240.
West Linn has been performing well recently as they've won 14 of their last 17 matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 23-6 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.1 runs on average over those games. As for Nelson, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 14-13 record this season.
As of now, neither West Linn nor Nelson have any future games scheduled.
