Baker dropped down to 7-8 on Monday, ending the team's three-game streak of wins. They came up short against the Northview Chiefs, falling 12-0. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Chiefs this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 10-0 two weeks ago.

As for Northview, they have been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine games. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-5 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.8 runs on average over those games.

For Northview's part, Peyton Womack made a big impact while hitting and pitching. She tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Womack has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in three of her four plate appearances with three runs, two RBI, and one double. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in March.

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Kylee Langham, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs, one stolen base, and one double. That's the most hits she has posted since back in February. Another player making a difference was Daviona Randolph, who went 1-for-4 with three RBI, two runs, and one double.

Baker didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next contest, a 5-1 defeat against Pensacola Catholic on the 9th. Northview has also already played their next matchup (against Jay), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
