West Bridgewater had lost five straight at home, but on Wednesday they dropped their record down to 5-12 to make it six. They lost 12-0 to the Case Cardinals. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Cardinals this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 25-0 back in April.
As for Case, they have been performing well recently as they've won nine of their last 11 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-4 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.5 runs on average over those games.
For Case's part, West Bridgewater's batters probably weren't too happy with Lila Alvarez, who pitched a no hitter and racked up 15 Ks (she gave up zero walks). Alvarez has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in ten consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Breanna Fontes, who got on base in four of her five plate appearances with one home run and three RBI. She has been hot recently, having posted at least one home run the last four times she's played. Another player making a difference was Nicole Rebelo, who went 2-for-4 with three runs and one RBI.
