Dothan extended their losing streak to four on Tuesday, dropping them down to 31-17. They were a single run away from ending the streak, but they lost a 4-3 heartbreaker at the hands of the Fairhope Pirates. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Pirates this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 7-2 on Monday.
As for Fairhope, they are on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 29-9-1 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.7 runs over those games.
For Fairhope's part, Addison Russell spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and two unearned) runs on four hits. Russell has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in 11 consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Ava Grace Miller was excellent, going 1-for-2 with two stolen bases, one run, and one RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Mallory Earp, who got on base in three of her four plate appearances with one run.
As of now, neither Dothan nor Fairhope have any future games scheduled.
