Silverado saw six different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Alex Valdez, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 2-for-4. Valdez is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last six games she's played.
Meanwhile, Barstow also suffered a loss in their last game, falling to Delano by a score of 11-6.
Barstow has also been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 3-6 record this season. That patch can't be blamed on the team's hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.5 runs over those games. Silverado now has a losing record of 6-7.
Silverado came out on top in a nail-biter against Barstow when the teams last played back in April of 2024, sneaking past 11-10. The rematch might be a little tougher for Silverado since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
