Brooke Sparkman was dynamite on Tuesday, not allowing a single earned run and only two hits over six innings pitched. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her seventh in a row with less than two walks allowed. For the year, Sparkman has been strong no matter where she plays. On the mound, she has an ERA of 4.41 over 49 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat she has slashed 0.581/0.588/0.871 with 10 RBI.
Sparkman and Hilliard will look to defend their home field on Thursday against Bradford at 6:30 p.m. Hilliard got just the result they wanted when they last faced Bradford, probably because Sparkman had a solid game then too: she pitched seven innings while giving up just two earned runs off five hits (she also didn't allow any walks). Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
