The California Condors will venture away from home to square off against the Gahr Gladiators at 3:15 p.m. on Friday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.
California barely beat Santa Fe the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. California never let Santa Fe get on the board and left with a 13-0 win on Wednesday. The result was nothing new for the Condors, who have now won four games by seven runs or more so far this season.
Meanwhile, Gahr made easy work of Mayfair on Thursday and carried off a 10-0 victory. The win made it back-to-back victories for the Gladiators.
Isabelle Gonzalez looked comfortable as she struck out six batters over 3.1 innings while giving up no earned runs off four hits (and not a single walk). The dominant performance also gave her a new career-low in walks (zero).
On the hitting side, Lea Hilbert was a standout: she scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-1. The dominant performance also gave her a new career-high in RBI (two). Mylah Burrowes also deserves some recognition as she snagged her first stolen bases of the season.
Gahr always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .633. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
California is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-5 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.3 runs over those games. Gahr's victory was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 5-5-2.
