With a playoff win on the line, Freedom rose to the challenge on Tuesday. Everything went their way against the American Canyon Wolves as they made off with a 14-3 win. The result was nothing new for the Falcons, who have now won nine matches by seven runs or more so far this season.

In other batting news, Freedom let Jaiden Proctor and Yasmeen Sanchez run wild. Proctor went 2-for-5 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs, while Sanchez got on base in four of her five plate appearances with two stolen bases, two runs, and one RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Alexis Rhoads, who went 2-for-3 with two runs and one double.

Freedom lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now launched at least two home runs in three consecutive games.

Freedom is on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last 11 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 10-9-1 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.8 runs on average over those games. As for American Canyon, their loss ended a three-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 12-12-1.

Coming up, Freedom will head out to take on Del Norte at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. The Warriors' pitching crew has only allowed 3.9 runs per game this season, so the Falcons' hitters will have their work cut out for them. American Canyon does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
