For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Tombstone and Bisbee meet (four straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Friday. The Yellow Jackets blew past the Pumas 15-4. The result was nothing new for the Yellow Jackets, who have now won ten games by eight runs or more so far this season.
Kyla Gross made a splash while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out nine batters over six innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off six hits. Gross was also stellar in the batter's box, going 1-for-4 with one home run and three RBI.
In other batting news, Hayden Dobbins was incredible, going a perfect 5-for-5 with one home run, four runs, and three RBI. That's the most runs she has posted since back in March. Another player making a difference was Bella Lopez, who went 2-for-5 with one home run, two runs, and two RBI.
Tombstone hit smart and finished the game with only two strikeouts. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Bisbee struck out eight times.
Tombstone's victory was their fifth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 13-12. Those road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Bisbee, the loss snapped their winning streak at seven games and leaves them with a 15-8 record.
Looking ahead, Tombstone will head out to take on Santa Cruz Valley at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Dust Devils' pitching crew has only allowed 3.9 runs per game this season, so the Yellow Jackets' hitters will have their work cut out for them. As for Bisbee, they will be playing at home against Willcox at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Pumas will need to watch out since the Cowboys have now posted at least ten runs in their last three matchups.
