Aerie Garcia spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered four earned (and three unearned) runs on 12 hits and racked up 13 Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than nine strikeouts in nine consecutive appearances.
Tokay pushed their record up to 12-7 with the victory, which was their sixth straight at home. Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.2 runs on average over those games. As for Stagg, their loss dropped their record down to 11-5.
Everything went Tokay's way against Stagg when the teams last played last Tuesday, as Tokay made off with a 7-0 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Tigers since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
