Kellogg extended their losing streak to seven on Friday, dropping their season record down to 3-13 in the process. They might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 12-2 to the Orofino Maniacs, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Maniacs this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 14-4 back in March.
As for Orofino, they moved to 11-7 with that win, which also ended their five-game losing streak. The result was nothing new for the Maniacs, who have now won nine contests by ten runs or more so far this season.
For Orofino's part, Reece Deyo was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out seven batters over six innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off five hits (and not a single walk). That's the most strikeouts Deyo has posted over her last eight matches. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-5 with three RBI.
In other batting news, Orofino got a massive performance out of Sierra Tondevold, who went 2-for-4 with three RBI, two runs, and one stolen base. Another player making a difference was Rilee Diffin, who went 1-for-4 with three runs, one stolen base, and one RBI.
While Kellogg had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
