Allison Podjaski spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on three hits and racked up nine Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one walk in four consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Mayven Schneider, who went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases, one run, and one RBI. Those two stolen bases gave her a new career-high. Cayden Sapinski was another key player, going 1-for-3 with two stolen bases and one run.
Marathon's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 10-7. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.7 runs on average over those games. As for Phillips, they have been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 8-7 record this season.
