South Hills's game on Saturday was a loss, but they didn't let that memory haunt them on Saturday. They came out on top against the California Condors by a score of 14-4 (the very same score they lost by in their prior game). The Huskies might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won ten matchups by six runs or more this season.

Parker Milton spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned (and one unearned) runs on seven hits and racked up eight Ks.

At the plate, South Hills let Giuliana Najera and Charli Moreno run wild. Najera went 3-for-4 with five RBI, two runs, and two doubles, while Moreno went 2-for-5 with one home run, four RBI, and one stolen base. Those three hits gave Najera a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Mikayla Sta. Ana, who went 3-for-4 with two RBI and one double.

South Hills was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .500. They are 12-1 when they post a batting average of .375 or better.

South Hills is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven games. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-6-1 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.6 runs over those games. As for California, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 14-9.

Coming up, South Hills will host Los Altos at 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Conquerors' pitching crew has only allowed 3.7 runs per game this season, so the Huskies' hitters will have their work cut out for them. As for California, they didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next contest, a 7-1 win against Valley Christian on the 22nd.
