Beyer had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 11-run drubbing they dealt Johansen on Friday. The Patriots blew past the Vikings 13-2. Considering the Patriots have won eight games by more than six runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Beyer let Alanna Verges and Audrina Urias run wild. Verges went a perfect 4-for-4 with three RBI, two runs, and one triple, while Urias scored two runs and stole a base while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. Those four hits gave Verges a new career-high. Lily Jaquez was another key player, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-3.
Beyer always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .688. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Johansen only posted an OBP of .211.
