Burley gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Saturday. They put the hurt on the Caldwell Cougars with a sharp 20-13 victory. Both teams can probably skip cardio this week after making that many trips around the bases.
Kaymbri Beck was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, tossing three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits (she also only allowed one walk). Beck was also big at the plate, going 1-for-5 with a triple, a run, and an RBI.
In other batting news, Mckenzie Dean was a standout: she fired off four runs, five RBI, and three doubles while going 4-for-5. Another player making a difference was Aaliyah Olmos, who fired off three doubles, four RBI, and two runs while going 4-for-5.
Caldwell are on a 14-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-2.
Burley will have a chance to go back-to-back against Caldwell: the pair will be back at it again later today.
