Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Florence/Henry). Everything went their way against the DeSmet Bulldogs on Tuesday as they made off with a 19-2 win. The result was nothing new for the Falcons, who have now won seven contests by nine runs or more so far this season.
Elizabeth Reiter was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she pitched three innings while giving up just two earned runs off two hits. She has been consistent: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts any time she's pitched this season. She was also big at the plate, getting on base in three of her four plate appearances with two runs and one RBI.
In other batting news, Kaylee Vavruska was incredible, going 3-for-4 with five RBI, two runs, and two doubles. Those two doubles gave her a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Emma Caulfield, who got on base in all three of her plate appearances with three stolen bases and three runs.
The victory was the fourth in a row for Florence/Henry, bringing their record up to 9-2. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.0 runs over those games. As for DeSmet, they are on a seven-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 0-7.
Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Florence/Henry will head out to take on Milbank at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Falcons are facing the Bulldogs at the right time seeing as the Bulldogs are stuck on a six-game losing streak. As for DeSmet, they will face off against Baltic at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. Baltic has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 10.29 runs per game on average), something DeSmet will no doubt try to take advantage of.
