Bethel barely beat Hampton the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Bruins put the hurt on the Crabbers with a sharp 18-5 victory on Tuesday. The result was nothing new for the Bruins, who have now won nine matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.
Emma Smith was a major factor no matter where she played. On the mound, she pitched five innings while giving up just two earned (and three unearned) runs off four hits. Smith was also stellar in the batter's box, going a perfect 2-for-2 with three runs, one stolen base, and two RBI. Those three runs gave her a new career-high.
In other batting news, Quinn Frederick was incredible, getting on base in all four of her plate appearances with three RBI, two runs, and one stolen base. Those three RBI gave her a new career-high. Mackenzie Trantham was another key player, going 1-for-2 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.
Bethel always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .882. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
The win snapped Bethel's losing streak at three games and leaves them with a 12-5 record. As for Hampton, their defeat dropped their record down to 5-16.
Looking ahead, Bethel will head out to challenge Churchland at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Hampton will be paying especially close attention to the Bruins' contest: after the Bruins face off against the Truckers, they'll take on Hampton again at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday.
