The matchup between Americas and Hanks on Wednesday hardly resembled the 4-0 effort from their previous meeting. The Trail Blazers blew past the Knights 16-4. The result was nothing new for the Trail Blazers, who have now won 12 matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.
Giselle Alcala was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, pitching five innings while giving up four earned runs off seven hits. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in ten consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going 2-for-3 with one home run and three RBI. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in February.
In other batting news, Brianna Madrid was a standout: she went 2-for-4 with one home run, two runs, and two RBI. That's the most runs she has posted since back in February. Suri Flores also deserves some recognition as she launched her first home run of the season.
Americas always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .595. They are a perfect 12-0 when they post an OBP of .513 or better.
Americas is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight games. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-13 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.4 runs over those games. As for Hanks, they are on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 13-10-1.
