For the Wildcats, this counts as revenge for the 10-0 win the Falcons walked away with the last time they faced one another back in April of 2024.
Kolbi Viers spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned (and one unearned) runs on five hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks any time she's pitched this season.
At the plate, Macie Barton and Jerzy Moon did most of the damage at the plate: Barton went 2-for-4 with one home run, two runs, and one stolen base, while Moon scored two runs and stole three bases while going 3-for-3. That's the most stolen bases Moon has posted since back in March of 2024. Another player making a difference was Sydnei Christensen, who went 1-for-3 with one home run and two RBI.
They weren't the only ones working in the home run department: Richfield lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That's the most home runs they've managed all season.
