It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Whitesboro had no problem doing just that on Friday. They blew past the Rains Wildcats 17-6. The Bearcats might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 13 games by ten runs or more this season.
Avery Howerton was a major factor no matter where she played. She didn't allow a single earned run while striking out seven over seven innings pitched. She has been consistent: she hasn't tossed less than seven strikeouts in six consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, getting on base in three of her six plate appearances with one home run, three runs, and two RBI.
In other batting news, Whitesboro let Bradi Gallaway and Cameron Ortiz run wild. Gallaway got on base in three of her six plate appearances with one home run, four RBI, and two runs, while Ortiz went 4-for-5 with three RBI, two runs, and two doubles. That's the most doubles Ortiz has posted since back in March. Another player making a difference was Tylar Olsen, who got on base in three of her five plate appearances with two runs and two RBI.
The win (which was Whitesboro's third in a row) raised their record to 20-9. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.3 runs on average over those games. As for Rains, their loss dropped their record down to 20-11-1.
Whitesboro will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Wildcats: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday.
