It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Holmes had no problem doing just that on Friday. They walked away with a 4-1 victory over the United Longhorns. That's two games straight that Holmes has won by exactly three runs.
For United's part, Kaylee Cox spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and three unearned) runs on eight hits and racked up six Ks. Cox has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't pitched less than six innings in nine consecutive pitching appearances.
Holmes has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won nine of their last ten contests, which provided a massive bump to their 18-11-1 record this season. As for United, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 18-13.
As of now, neither Holmes nor United have any future games scheduled.
