What's more, she posted two strikeouts, the most she's had since back in February. She was also stellar in the batter's box, scoring two runs while going 2-for-4.

As for Paramount, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 8-8 record this season.
