Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Dutchtown). They walked away with a 39-36 win over the Banneker Trojans on Wednesday. Winning may never get old, but the Bulldogs sure are getting used to it with their sixth in a row.
The team relied heavily on Ja'Myiah Walker, who fired off two home runs, six runs, and three stolen bases while getting on base in six of her eight plate appearances. She continues to roll, besting her previous point total in each of the last four games she's played. Another player making a difference was Alexandra Gomez, who scored five runs and stole eight bases while getting on base in all six of her plate appearances.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Dutchtown always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .766. The last time their OBP was this high was back in August.
Dutchtown has been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine contests, which provided a nice bump to their 19-7 record this season. As for Banneker, they are on a 16-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-18.
