Liberty entered their tilt with Heritage on Tuesday with ten consecutive wins, and they'll enter their next game with 11. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Patriots a 7-0 shutout. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last four times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
Heritage's batters probably weren't too happy with Kate Skinner, who pitched a no hitter and racked up 13 Ks (she gave up six walks). Skinner has been consistent: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in eight consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Isabella Rice, who went 1-for-3 with one home run and two RBI. She is on a roll when it comes to home runs, as she's now launched at least one in each of the last four games she's played. Another player making a difference was Taylor Jennings, who went 1-for-4 with one home run.
They weren't the only ones working in the home run department: Liberty lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now launched at least two home runs in six consecutive games.
Liberty's win was their 11th straight at home, which pushed their record up to 19-4. The home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.3 runs over those games. As for Heritage, their loss dropped their record down to 13-9-1.
The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Liberty beat the Patriots by a score of 7-1 on Thursday.
