Haylee Ellis turned in her biggest game of the season on Wednesday, not allowing a single earned run and only two hits while striking out 16 over seven innings pitched. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her fifth in a row with less than two walks allowed. For the year, Ellis has been strong no matter where she plays. On the mound, she has an ERA of 2.66 over 76.3 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat she has slashed 0.500/0.588/0.905 with 15 runs.
Ellis and Northwest Cabarrus will stay at home for another game and welcome South Rowan at 5:30 p.m. on Friday. Northwest Cabarrus got just the result they wanted when they last faced South Rowan, probably because Ellis had a solid game then too: she struck out ten batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and three unearned) runs off four hits. Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
