The third road game was the charm for Hamilton, as they earned their first road win of the season. They walked away with a 7-3 victory over the Winfield Pirates on Monday. The game was the first time the Aggies have beaten the Pirates on their field since April 6, 2024.
Addi Wilson spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and two unearned) runs on nine hits and racked up six Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Brilyn Gilstrap was excellent, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-4. She also hit a double, marking her first of the season. Jessica Shotts was another key player, scoring a run while going 2-for-4.
Gilstrap wasn't the only one working in the hit department: Hamilton kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That's a new trend for Hamilton: they were averaging 4.8 hits per game earlier this season, but in their last 15 matchups they've averaged 11.2.
Hamilton has been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 7-10 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.8 runs on average over those games. Winfield's defeat ended a four-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 2-1.
Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Hamilton will take on Fayette County at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday. As for Winfield, they will square off against Jasper at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The last four games Jasper has played have been within two runs, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
