Lovelady extended their postseason success on Wednesday against Alto. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Yellowjackets a 7-0 shutout. The Lions might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 12 matches by seven runs or more this season.
Lance Pierce made a big impact while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run over seven innings pitched. He has been consistent: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in five consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with three stolen bases and two runs. Those three stolen bases gave him a new career-high.

The win was the seventh in a row for Lovelady, bringing their record up to 19-10-1. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.7 runs on average over those games. As for Alto, they have been struggling recently as they've lost five of their last six contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 7-17 record this season.
