On Friday Izzy Jackson was dialed in and struck out eight batters over seven innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off five hits. She played a big game the last time she faced Bells, so the team probably should've seen her coming. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her fourth in a row with more than five innings. This season, Jackson has an ERA of 2.15 over 58.7 innings pitched.
Jackson and Blue Ridge will be playing at home against Leonard at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Blue Ridge got just the result they wanted when they last faced Leonard, probably because Jackson had a solid game then too: she tossed three innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (she also didn't allow any walks). Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
