Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Mona Shores). They were the clear victors by a 22-2 margin over the Shelby Tigers on Monday. The Sailors might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven games by nine runs or more this season.
Lilli Baskin spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned runs on ten hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in 12 consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Grace Michelli and Amelia Pena did most of the damage at the plate: Michelli got on base in all six of her plate appearances with one home run, eight RBI, and three runs, while Pena went 5-for-6 with five runs, five RBI, and one double. Those eight RBI gave Michelli a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Miley Peterson, who got on base in four of her five plate appearances with three runs and one RBI.
Mona Shores always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .714. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
The victory was the fifth in a row for Mona Shores, bringing their record up to 10-12.
