Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Hillsboro walked away with it. They put the hurt on the Morgan Raiders with a sharp 10-4 victory on Wednesday. The result was nothing new for the Indians, who have now won 13 games by six runs or more so far this season.
Camryn Spruell made a big impact no matter where she played. She struck out 13 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and three unearned) runs off eight hits. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts any time she's pitched this season. She was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-3 with two RBI and one run.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Choe Roberts, who got on base in all five of her plate appearances with one home run and two RBI. Rhianna Clemons was another key player, going 1-for-3 with three runs and one stolen base.
The win (which was Hillsboro's 11th in a row) raised their record to 22-3. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.8 runs over those games. As for Morgan, the defeat snapped their winning streak at six games and leaves them with a 14-10 record.
Hillsboro will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Raiders: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 5:00 p.m. on Friday.
