Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Tunkhannock). Everything went their way against the Pittston Patriots on Friday as they made off with a 19-7 victory. The Tigers might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 11 matches by seven runs or more this season.
McKenzie Hannon spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered six earned (and one unearned) runs on four hits and racked up 11 Ks.
On the hitting side, Addisyn Waterman was incredible, getting on base in all five of her plate appearances with four runs, two triples, and two stolen bases. She is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last four games she's played. Kianna Hannon also deserves some recognition as she brought in her first RBI of the season.
Tunkhannock always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .659. The last time their OBP was this high was back in May of 2024.
Tunkhannock's win was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 14-1. Those road victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 13.3 runs over those games. As for Pittston, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 7-6.
Coming up, Tunkhannock will challenge Jersey Shore at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. As for Pittston, they will take on Dallas at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday. The Mountaineers' pitching crew has only allowed 3.2 runs per game this season, so the Patriots' hitters will have their work cut out for them.
