Ashlyn Brown turned in nothing short of a gem on Thursday: she struck out eight batters over six innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off five hits (and not a single walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her 18th in a row with more than five strikeouts. This year, Brown has an ERA of 2.91 over 110.7 innings pitched.
