East Longmeadow hadn't done well against Northampton recently (they were 2-7 in their previous nine matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Wednesday. The Spartans put the hurt on the Blue Devils with a sharp 7-1 win. Considering the Spartans have won 11 matchups by more than five runs this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.
Riley McCauley spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned run on five hits and racked up eight Ks. She has been consistent: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in seven consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Emma Maurer and Eve Butler did most of the damage at the plate: Maurer went 1-for-3 with one triple, two RBI, and one run, while Butler went 2-for-4 with three stolen bases and two runs. That's the most stolen bases Butler has posted since back in April.
East Longmeadow is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-4 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.8 runs on average over those games. As for Northampton, they dropped their record down to 2-7 with the loss, which was their fifth straight on the road.
As of now, neither East Longmeadow nor the Blue Devils have any future games scheduled.
