It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but East Helena had no problem doing just that on Thursday. They came out on top in a nail-biter against the Park Rangers, sneaking past 20-19. The Vigilantes' hitters stepped up their game for this one, as that was the most runs they've scored all season.
East Helena let Maddie Surginer and Sara Dearing run wild. Surginer went 3-for-4 with three RBI, two runs, and one stolen base, while Dearing went 2-for-5 with three runs, three RBI, and two doubles. Those three runs gave Dearing a new career-high. Taylor Field was another key player, going 2-for-5 with two runs, two RBI, and one double.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact: East Helena kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 17 hits. They are 3-1 when they post 11 or more hits.
East Helena moved to 4-11 with that victory, which also ended their three-game losing streak. As for Park, they are on a six-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 4-8.
Looking ahead, East Helena will take on Dawson County at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday. The Red Devils have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 8.8 runs per game on average), something the Vigilantes will no doubt try to take advantage of. Park does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
