It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Powhatan had no problem doing just that on Thursday. They put the hurt on the Hanover Hawks with a sharp 16-6 victory. The result was nothing new for the Indians, who have now won nine games by seven runs or more so far this season.
Mazie Harmon was incredible, going 2-for-3 with one home run, four runs, and three RBI. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in April. Sklar White also deserves some recognition as she brought in her first RBI of the season.
Powhatan always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .686. Their OBP was a full 0 higher than the also-impressive .519 that Hanover posted.
Powhatan's win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 13-7. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Hanover, they moved to 12-8 with that loss, which also ended their five-game winning streak.
Looking ahead, Powhatan will challenge Eastern View on Friday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Indians 3, the Cyclones 1) so any runs scored will be well earned. Hanover does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
