Scotts Valley had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the ten-run drubbing they dealt Soquel on Monday. The Falcons blew past the Knights 12-2. The Falcons might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won ten matches by seven runs or more this season.

Sofie Seese tossed a big game, tossing five innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off two hits. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks any time she's pitched this season.

On the hitting side, Scotts Valley got a massive performance out of Gracie Delgado, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with four RBI, two runs, and one stolen base. That's the most hits Delgado has posted since back in May of 2024. Natalie Murray-Skalland was another key player, going 2-for-4 with one home run and three RBI.

Scotts Valley kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 17 hits. That's the most hits they've managed all season.

The victory was the sixth in a row for Scotts Valley, bringing their record up to 15-5-1. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.8 runs on average over those games. As for Soquel, they dropped their record down to 2-8 with the loss, which was their fifth straight on the road.

We've got plenty of inter-league action coming up soon. Scotts Valley is set to take on their familiar foe Harbor at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Soquel will challenge rival Aptos at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday.
