Grants Pass had lost four straight on the road, but on Friday they dropped their record down to 6-7 to make it five. They might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 4-2 to the Sheldon Irish, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last three times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
As for Sheldon, the win (which was their third in a row) raised their record to 10-5. That's two games straight that they have won by exactly two runs.
For Sheldon's part, Soraya Dorsey spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on one hit and racked up seven Ks. Dorsey has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one hit in three consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Sheldon's victory was truly a team effort as three different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Scout Burrell, who went a perfect 1-for-1 with two RBI and one run.
The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Grants Pass beat the Irish by a score of 5-4 later that day.
