Taft won the last time they faced Kaufer and things went their way on Tuesday too. The Taft Greyhounds put the hurt on the Kaufer Seahawks with a sharp 17-2 win. The result was nothing new for the Greyhounds, who have now won four contests by eight runs or more so far this season.
Josette Aparicio was a major factor no matter where she played. On the mound, she tossed three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. Aparicio was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs and stealing a base while getting on base in two of her three plate appearances.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Juliana Alaniz, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with three stolen bases, five RBI, and three runs. Daviana Mendez was another key player, scoring three runs and stealing a base while going 2-for-2.
Taft always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .731. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
Taft is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 9-4 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.8 runs over those games. Kaufer is on a ten-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-9.
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Taft will head out to challenge San Diego at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Kaufer will get a bit of extra time to process the loss as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on La Villa at 5:30 p.m. on March 25th.
