Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Lely). They put the hurt on the Gateway Charter Griffins with a sharp 23-8 win on Monday. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Trojans considering their one-run performance the game before.
Star Orosco made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she struck out nine batters over four innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off one hit. Those nine strikeouts gave her a new career-high. She was even better at the plate, going 3-for-4 with one home run, three stolen bases, and three runs. 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.
In other batting news, Brooke Bledsoe was incredible, firing off two home runs, six RBI, and three runs while going 3-for-5. Those two home runs gave her a new career-high. Mary Dalag was another key player, going 2-for-3 with three runs, one stolen base, and one RBI.
Lely was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .469. That's the best batting average they've posted all season.
Lely is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 7-14 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 13.2 runs over those games. As for Gateway Charter, they are on an eight-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-9.
Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Lely will head out to challenge Naples at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Golden Eagles have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 10.16 runs per game on average), something the Trojans will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Gateway Charter, they will face off against Babcock at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
