On Monday, Independence came up short against La Joya Community and fell 9-4. The loss was the Patriots' first of the season.
For La Joya Community's part, Andrea Leon spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered four earned runs on nine hits.
At the plate, Anaya Romero was incredible, firing off two home runs and four RBI while going 2-for-3. She is on a roll when it comes to RBI, as she's now brought in three or more in each of the last eight games she's played. Another player making a difference was Mariah Lozano, who scored a run while going 1-for-4.
Romero wasn't the only one working in the home run department: La Joya Community lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now launched at least two home runs in six consecutive contests.
La Joya Community is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight games. That's provided a nice bump to their 11-9 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 16.6 runs over those games. Having lost for the first time this season, Independence fell to 8-1.
Wednesday's matchup might come down to which pitcher can control the ball better. Independence has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .485. However, it's not like La Joya Community struggles in that department as they've averaged .534. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
