While St. David put up plenty of runs on Friday, the same can't be said for Bagdad. The Tigers blew past the Sultans 20-0. The result was nothing new for the Tigers, who have now won six contests by ten runs or more so far this season.

Paisley Gooding looked comfortable as she didn't allow a single earned run while striking out nine over four innings pitched. That's the most strikeouts she has posted since back in May of 2025.

On the hitting side, St. David got a massive performance out of Emelynn Jacquez, who went a perfect 4-for-4 with four runs, three RBI, and one stolen base. Jacquez has been hot recently, having posted three or more hits the last three times she's played. Another player making a difference was Camber Jacquez, who went 3-for-4 with three runs, four RBI, and two doubles.

St. David kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 18 hits. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 4.4 hits per game earlier this season, but in their last 15 games they've averaged 15.

The victory (which was St. David's third in a row) raised their record to 8-2. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.3 runs on average over those games. As for Bagdad, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-7.

Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. St. David will challenge Tanque Verde at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Tigers' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Hawks have averaged an impressive 11.4 runs per game this season.
