Leah Perez was dynamite on Friday, striking out 16 batters over seven innings while giving up three earned (and two unearned) runs off six hits. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her eighth in a row with more than six strikeouts. On the season, Perez has been strong no matter where she plays. On the mound, she has an ERA of 1.05 over 40 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat she has slashed 0.429/0.429/0.571 with 14 RBI.
Perez and Hialeah Gardens have the luxury of staying home for another game and will welcome Miami Beach at 3:30 p.m. on Monday. Perez has dominated as far as strikeouts are concerned (she's averaged 7.7 per game this season), but she's got her work cut out for her considering Miami Beach has only allowed 2.42 per game this season.
