Frederick extended their losing streak (dating back to last season) to ten on Tuesday, dropping them down to 0-4. They lost 15-0 to the Mangum Tigers. If the Bombers were looking for revenge after losing 10-0 to the Tigers when the teams met back in August of 2017, then they'll just have to keep looking.
As for Mangum, they are on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last 12 matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 17-6 record this season. The result was nothing new for Mangum, who have now won 12 games by seven runs or more so far this season.
For Mangum's part, Paelyn Clark made a big impact no matter where she played. On the mound, she struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). Clark has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with four runs, two RBI, and one double. That's the most hits she has posted since back in August.
In other pitching news, Jaycee McFerrin looked comfortable as she tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. What's more, she posted two strikeouts, the most she's had over her last five contests.
Back at the plate, Giselle Rowell was incredible, getting on base in all five of her plate appearances with three stolen bases and four runs. Those three stolen bases gave her a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Gracie Smith, who went 2-for-3 with four RBI, one run, and one double.
While Frederick had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
