While Murphy put up some runs on Thursday, the same can't be said for Hayesville. The Bulldogs put the hurt on the Yellowjackets with a sharp 8-0 victory. Considering the Bulldogs have won six games by more than five runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.
Paisley Johnson made a splash while hitting and pitching. She kept things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out 11 over six innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in five consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, going a perfect 1-for-1 with one home run.
Johnson wasn't the only one making solid contact as four players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Julia Dockery, who went 1-for-3 with three stolen bases, one run, and one RBI. That's the most stolen bases Dockery has posted since back in February. Another was Grace Moore, who went 1-for-2 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.
Murphy hit smart and finished the game with only two strikeouts. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Hayesville struck out 12 times.
Murphy is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-7 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.8 runs over those games. As for Hayesville, they are on a 13-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-14.
As of now, neither Murphy nor the Yellowjackets have any future games scheduled.
