Babcock won against South Fort Myers last Tuesday with 21 runs and they decided to stick to that run total again on Tuesday. The Babcock Trailblazers beat the Dunbar Tigers by the very same score they won with in their prior game: 21-1. The result was nothing new for the Trailblazers, who have now won five games by 12 runs or more so far this season.
Brooklyn Mills was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out seven batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off three hits (and only one walk). She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one walk in eight consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs while getting on base in three of her four plate appearances.
In other batting news, Babcock let AJ Macia and Emmie Barritt run wild. Macia scored three runs while getting on base in all three of her plate appearances, while Barritt scored two runs while getting on base in three of her four plate appearances. Another player making a difference was Bry Tressel, who scored two runs while getting on base in all three of her plate appearances.
Babcock always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .781. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .535 or higher in three consecutive matchups.
Babcock's win was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 6-3. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Dunbar, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-5.
Looking ahead, Babcock will be playing at home against Island Coast at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Babcock's pitching crew has only allowed 3.4 runs per game this season, so Island Coast's hitters will have their work cut out for them. Dunbar will get a bit of extra time to process the defeat as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on Booker at 6:00 p.m. on March 24th. Booker knows how to get runs on the board -- the squad has finished with ten runs or more in their past four contests -- so hopefully Dunbar likes a good challenge.
