Lassen had already won seven in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 7.9 runs) and they went ahead and made it eight on Thursday. They blew past the Anderson Cubs 17-1. The Grizzlies might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine matches by six runs or more this season.

Shaylynn Cain was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out eight over five innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, getting on base in three of her four plate appearances with two runs. Those two runs gave her a new career-high.

In other batting news, Lassen let Delilah Delgado and Anarosa Rodriguez run wild. Delgado went 3-for-4 with three runs, four RBI, and one triple, while Rodriguez went 3-for-4 with three runs, three RBI, and one triple. That's the most hits Delgado has posted since back in March. Kiki Cisneros was another key player, going a perfect 2-for-2 with two runs and two RBI.

Lassen always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .667. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.

Lassen pushed their record up to 12-5 with the win, which was their 12th straight on the road dating back to last season. Those road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.5 runs on average over those games. As for Anderson, they are on a ten-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-13.

Lassen wasted no time getting back out on the field and has already played their next contest, a 7-5 win against Colusa on the 25th. As for Anderson, they will look to defend their home field on Tuesday against Yreka at 4:30 p.m. The Miners have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 10.33 runs per game on average), something the Cubs will no doubt try to take advantage of.
