Douglas County had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They came out on top against the South Cobb Eagles by a score of 15-12 on Friday. That's more bragging rights for the Tigers, who also won the pair's last head-to-head.
Kamayah Jackson was incredible, scoring three runs and stealing seven bases while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. Arissa James was another key contributor, scoring three runs and stealing two bases while getting on base in three of her five plate appearances.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Douglas County didn't let batters stay on the plate for long and finished the game with nine strikeouts. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as South Cobb only tossed three.
Coincidentally, the pair will both be playing Langston Hughes the next time they take the field. Douglas County will host Langston Hughes at 5:30 p.m. on Monday, while South Cobb will host them at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
