Continental entered their tilt with Leipsic on Tuesday with three consecutive wins, and they'll enter their next game with four. They blew past the Vikings 9-1. The result was nothing new for the Pirates, who have now won seven matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.
Gracie Homier was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out ten batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in ten consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with one home run, four RBI, and two runs.
In other batting news, Kenzie Searfoss was excellent, going 2-for-4 with two runs, one stolen base, and one double. She is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last four games she's played. Another player making a difference was Raegen Clemens, who went 1-for-3 with one triple, one run, and one RBI.
Continental's win bumped their record up to 14-7. As for Leipsic, they have been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 9-12 record this season.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Continental will host Holgate at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday. The Pirates will need to watch out since the Tigers have now posted at least ten runs in their last three games. As for Leipsic, they will take on McComb in a tournament on Wednesday. The Panthers have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 10.89 runs per game on average), something the Vikings will no doubt try to take advantage of.
