Strasburg-Franklin had already won six in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 10 runs) and they went ahead and made it seven on Thursday. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Frontier Cougars an 8-0 shutout. The result was nothing new for the Tigers, who have now won 11 matches by six runs or more so far this season.
Miley Reifenschneider made a big impact no matter where she played. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out nine over seven innings pitched. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than one walk in five consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with one home run and two RBI.
In other batting news, Addie Sundheimer and Olivia Spidell did most of the damage at the plate: Sundheimer went 2-for-4 with three RBI, one run, and one double, while Spidell got on base in three of her five plate appearances with three stolen bases, one run, and one RBI. Those three stolen bases gave Spidell a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Rylee Becker, who went 2-for-4 with one stolen base and one run.
Strasburg-Franklin pushed their record up to 16-8 with the victory, which was their fourth straight on the road. Those road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 13.0 runs over those games. As for Frontier, with the loss, they broke their three-game winning streak and moved their record to 21-4.
Coming up, Strasburg-Franklin will face off against Tuscarawas Valley at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. The Trojans' pitching crew has only allowed 2.3 runs per game this season, so the Tigers' hitters will have their work cut out for them. Frontier does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
