The result was nothing new for the Eagles, who have now won nine matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.

She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over seven innings while giving up just two earned runs off five hits (and not a single walk). She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one walk in five consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with two runs and one RBI.

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Addison Efird, who went 2-for-4 with two RBI, one run, and one double. Another player making a difference was Natalia Delgadillo, who went 1-for-4 with two RBI, one run, and one double.

Immanuel kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Sierra Pacific only managed five hits.

Immanuel is on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last ten contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 16-5-2 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.5 runs over those games.
