Goodrich had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. They narrowly escaped with a victory as the squad sidled past the Frankenmuth Eagles 2-1. This was payback for the Martians, who suffered a 2-0 defeat the last time these two teams met.
Jayden Gohs made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she struck out 14 batters over nine innings while giving up just one earned run off six hits (and not a single walk). She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in 18 consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with one home run.
Gohs wasn't the only one making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Abby Stefanski, who went 1-for-4 with one home run.
Goodrich has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won ten of their last 12 matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 28-9-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.4 runs on average over those games. As for Frankenmuth, with the loss, they broke their seven-game winning streak and moved their record to 18-5.
As of now, neither Goodrich nor the Eagles have any future games scheduled.
