Carroll had won six straight at home dating back to last season, but on Thursday they bumped their record up to 7-1 to make it seven. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 3-2 win over the Bellmont Braves. For the Chargers, this counts as revenge for the 6-1 victory the Braves walked away with the last time they faced one another back in April of 2024.
Emilia Garcia spent all eight innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned runs on seven hits and racked up eight Ks.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Lily Schultz, who went 2-for-4 with one triple, one stolen base, and one RBI. She is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last three games she's played.
As for Bellmont, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 4-3 record this season. The contest marked their lowest-scoring game so far this season.
On Bellmont's side, they also let their pitcher toss all seven innings and she was also dialed-in: Bella Ashley gave up just two earned (and one unearned) runs on five hits.
On the hitting side, Taylor Bauer made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and went 2-for-4 with one triple, one run, and one RBI. That triple was her first of the season.
