Clara Knight turned in nothing short of a gem on Tuesday: she struck out six batters over seven innings while giving up five earned (and two unearned) runs off nine hits (and only one walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her fifth in a row with less than two walks allowed. For the year, Knight has an ERA of 2.90 over 30.4 innings pitched.
Knight and Lafayette will head out on the road to take on Madison County at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Knight has dominated as far as walks are concerned (she's averaged 0.7 per game this season), but she's got her work cut out for her considering Madison County has only allowed 3.8 per game this season.
