Roosevelt fought the good fight in their extra-innings contest against Cleveland on Friday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Warriors by a score of 5-4. The Roughriders were not able to repeat the success they had when they faced the Warriors earlier this season, when they won 12-6.
Ruby Frish spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and three unearned) runs on ten hits.
On the hitting side, Zulaykha Armstrachan was cooking despite her team's loss, going 3-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base. Leslie Homan also deserves some recognition as she launched her first home run of the season.
Roosevelt's loss dropped their record down to 9-7. As for Cleveland, their win was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 9-12.
