Winning always takes teamwork, but on Saturday Carlee Strand stepped things up a notch to give La Grande the 'W'. Fruitland had no answer to Strand as she struck out seven batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off three hits. Strand has been consistent : she hasn't given up more than one earned run in six consecutive appearances.
Looking ahead, Strand and La Grande will be playing at home against Baker/Powder Valley at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The last time Strand took on the Bulldogs, she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out six over five innings pitched. Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
