Sherman Oaks CES strolled into their game on Monday with a perfect record and they left with the same. Everything went their way against the Panorama Pythons as they made off with a 24-2 win. Considering the Knights have won 15 contests by more than nine runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.

Araceli Altamirano made a splash no matter where she played. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out 11 over four innings pitched. She has been consistent: she hasn't tossed less than eight strikeouts in six consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with one home run, four runs, and four RBI. That home run was her first of the season.

In other batting news, Reagan Rosenthal was a standout: she went a perfect 4-for-4 with one home run, two stolen bases, and three runs. That's the most stolen bases she has posted since back in April. Another player making a difference was Kaylee Teddy, who got on base in all four of her plate appearances with one home run, four runs, and four RBI.

Sherman Oaks CES always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .732. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .532 or higher in 13 consecutive games.

Sherman Oaks CES' victory was their tenth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 16-0. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.3 runs on average over those games. As for Panorama, the loss snapped their winning streak at three games and leaves them with a 3-10 record.

Looking ahead, Sherman Oaks CES will challenge Grant at 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Knights are facing the Lancers at the right time seeing as the Lancers are stuck on a 13-game losing streak. As for Panorama, they will head out to face off against Valley Academy of Arts & Sciences at 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Vipers have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 12.17 runs per game on average), something the Pythons will no doubt try to take advantage of.
