On Monday Morgan Vertz was dialed in and struck out nine batters over four innings while giving up just two earned runs off two hits (and only one walk). She played a big game the last time she faced Manitowoc Lincoln, so the team probably should've seen her coming. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her ninth in a row with less than two walks allowed. On the year, Vertz has an ERA of 1.54 over 82 innings pitched.
Vertz and Pulaski will head out on the road to take on Notre Dame Academy at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. Pulaski got just the result they wanted when they last faced Notre Dame Academy, probably because Vertz had a solid game then too: she didn't allow a single earned run while striking out six over six innings pitched. Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
