Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Hayes). They were the clear victors by a 20-0 margin over the Berne Union Rockets on Saturday. The result was nothing new for the Pacers, who have now won 13 games by six runs or more so far this season.
Hannah McAllister made a splash no matter where she played. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out eight over five innings pitched. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in 11 consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with two doubles, two RBI, and one run. That's the most doubles she has posted since back in April.
In other batting news, Zee Brown was a standout: she fired off two home runs and four RBI while going 2-for-4. Those two home runs gave her a new career-high. Lizzy Gould was another key player, firing off four doubles, two runs, and two RBI while going 4-for-4.
Hayes was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .590. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .424 or higher in four consecutive matchups.
Hayes' win was their ninth straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 21-1. The road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.2 runs on average over those games. As for Berne Union, they have been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 12-10 record this season.
Coincidentally, Hayes and Berne Union will both be playing Bishop Ready the next time they take the field. The Pacers will head out to face the Silver Knights at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, while the Rockets will play them later in the day, at 2:00 p.m.
