McCollum got themselves on the board against Edison on Thursday, but Edison never followed suit. They blew past the Golden Bears 16-0. The result was nothing new for the Cowboys, who have now won ten matches by six runs or more so far this season.
RUIZ MADELYNN and SORAYA TORRES were major factors no matter where they played. On the mound, MADELYNN pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Meanwhile, TORRES pitched one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. MADELYNN has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive appearances. At the plate, MADELYNN went a perfect 3-for-3 with five RBI, one run, and one double, while TORRES went 2-for-3 with two triples, three runs, and three RBI. Those two triples gave TORRES a new career-high.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on MARTINEZ LAUREN, who got on base in all three of her plate appearances with three runs, one stolen base, and one RBI. Another player making a difference was LORENA GONZALEZ, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with three RBI and one run.
McCollum always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .741. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
The win was the fifth in a row for McCollum, bringing their record up to 18-5. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.4 runs on average over those games. As for Edison, they moved to 5-13-1 with that defeat, which also ended their three-game winning streak.
