Griffith had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 12-run drubbing they dealt Whiting on Monday. The Panthers blew past the Oilers 14-2. The result was nothing new for the Panthers, who have now won six contests by 12 runs or more so far this season.
Brylie Bridges and Victoria Nudo made a big impact no matter where they played. On the mound, Bridges tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Meanwhile, Nudo tossed three innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off four hits. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances. At bat, Bridges went 1-for-4 with two runs and one stolen base, while Nudo went 2-for-3 with two stolen bases, one run, and one RBI. Those two hits gave Nudo a new career-high.
In other batting news, Morgan Von Ogden was a standout: she went 2-for-3 with three stolen bases and two runs. Those three stolen bases gave her a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Cheyanne Fant, who went a perfect 1-for-1 with one triple, one stolen base, and one run.
Griffith always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .579. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Whiting only posted an OBP of .304.
The win was the fifth in a row for Griffith, bringing their record up to 12-5. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.4 runs on average over those games. As for Whiting, they now have a losing record of 6-7.
Griffith will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Oilers: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
