Gilroy put their dominant pitcher on display in the team's third consecutive shutout on Thursday. They put the hurt on the Palma Chieftains with a sharp 7-0 victory. Considering the Mustangs have won eight matchups by more than six runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.
The result came thanks to Ariela Yslava's shutout, as she gave up just two hits and racked up ten Ks. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in 12 consecutive appearances.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Dani Wilson, who went 2-for-3 with three stolen bases, two runs, and one RBI. Those three stolen bases gave her a new career-high.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Gilroy kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Palma only managed three hits.
Gilroy is on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last ten games. That's provided a nice bump to their 11-4 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.7 runs on average over those games. As for Palma, their defeat was their fifth straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 4-8.
Looking ahead, Gilroy will be playing at home against Christopher at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. The Cougars have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 7.5 runs per game on average), something the Mustangs will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Palma, they will be taking part in a tournament against San Lorenzo Valley at 10:45 a.m. on Saturday.
