Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Sylmar). They put the hurt on the Monroe Vikings with a sharp 21-3 win on Monday. The victory was nothing new for the Spartans as they're now sitting on eight straight.
The team relied heavily on Maya Salceda, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with one home run, three stolen bases, and six RBI. She has been hot recently, having posted two or more stolen bases the last three times she's played. Another player making a difference was Katherine Godoy, who went 3-for-4 with three runs, four RBI, and two doubles.
Sylmar was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .643. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .393 or higher in nine consecutive games.
Sylmar's win was their sixth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 11-7. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.8 runs on average over those games. As for Monroe, they have been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last eight matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 5-9 record this season.
Sylmar will head out on the road to challenge North Hollywood at 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday. The Huskies' pitching crew has only allowed 2.9 runs per game this season, so the Spartans' hitters will have their work cut out for them. As for Monroe, they will square off against Van Nuys at 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Vikings' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Wolves have averaged an impressive 10.5 runs per game this season.
