Castro Valley proved they can win big on Friday (they won by eight) and on Tuesday they proved they can win the close ones too. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Alameda Hornets a 2-0 shutout. Those two runs were actually the fewest the Trojans have put up all season, but given the result they're probably not too concerned.
The result came thanks to Alanys Robertson's shutout, as she gave up just three hits and racked up seven Ks. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks any time she's pitched this season.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Miley Snellgrove, who went 1-for-3 with one home run and two RBI.
