L.C. Bird had lost five straight at home, but on Tuesday they dropped down to 4-10 to make it six. They came up short against the Cosby Titans, falling 16-0. The home team had taken home the W every time these teams have met since May 13, 2021, but that streak is no more.
As for Cosby, they are on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last ten contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 11-4-1 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.9 runs over those games.
For Cosby's part, Abigail Conwell looked comfortable as she pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits.
On the hitting side, Aislin Bossler was a standout: she went 3-for-4 with three RBI, two doubles, and one run. That's the most doubles she has posted since back in April. Madison Perno was another key player, going 2-for-3 with four RBI, one triple, and one run.
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. L.C. Bird will venture away from home to face off against Manchester at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Lancers' pitching crew has only allowed 4.1 runs per game this season, so the Skyhawks' hitters will have their work cut out for them.
