Winning always takes teamwork, but on Wednesday Kamilah Amezcua stepped things up a notch to give Marquez the 'W'. Amezcua turned in her biggest game of the season, striking out seven batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and only one walk). She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up a single earned run in four consecutive appearances.
Amezcua's strong effort led Marquez over Elizabeth and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 2:00 p.m. on Friday. The Bulldogs are limping into the matchup having lost seven straight at home dating back to last season. There's no doubt they're looking for a change of fortune, but will Amezcua and the Gladiators have enough to stop it?
