East Canton never got on the board in their matchup on Tuesday, but that sure wasn't the case in their game against Malvern on Wednesday. They blew past Malvern 13-2. The high-scoring performance was a welcome turnaround for East Canton's hitters, who had struggled in the games prior.
Caidynce Murphy was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out nine over five innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one walk in three consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, getting on base in two of her four plate appearances with two runs and one stolen base. That stolen base was her first of the season.
In other batting news, Cailyn John and Charlie Robinson did most of the damage at the plate: John went a perfect 3-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and one double, while Robinson went 2-for-4 with three runs, three RBI, and one stolen base. Those runs marked the first that John has scored this season. Katelyn Hill was another key player, going 2-for-4 with two RBI, one run, and one double.
