Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Kinder). They never let the Avoyelles Mustangs get on the board and left with a 23-0 victory on Thursday. The Yellowjackets might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won ten games by six runs or more this season.
Samantha Hayes was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (and not a single walk). That's the fewest hits she has allowed since back in February. She was also big at the plate, getting on base in all four of her plate appearances with one stolen base and one RBI.
In other batting news, Kinder got a massive performance out of Abby Fontenot, who went 3-for-4 with seven RBI, three doubles, and two runs. Those hits were Fontenot's first of the season. Another player making a difference was Brianna Fontenot, who got on base in all four of her plate appearances with three runs, three RBI, and one triple.
Kinder always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .914. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
The win made it two in a row for Kinder and bumps their season record up to 14-2. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 0 runs in those games. As for Avoyelles, their defeat was their sixth straight at home dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 0-17.
