Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only California walked away with it. They put the hurt on the Bishop O'Dowd Dragons with a sharp 10-4 victory on Wednesday. The result was nothing new for the Grizzlies, who have now won 11 games by six runs or more so far this season.
Gabriella Nudo looked comfortable as she pitched three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Jayda Crosby and Hailey King did most of the damage at the plate: Crosby went 3-for-5 with four RBI, two runs, and one stolen base, while King went 1-for-3 with one home run and four RBI. Those four RBI gave King a new career-high. Kirsten Li was another key player, going 2-for-3 with two runs and one stolen base.
California was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .438. They are a perfect 12-0 when they post a batting average of .375 or better.
California has been performing well recently as they've won 12 of their last 15 matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 19-8 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 7.9 runs over those games. As for Bishop O'Dowd, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 16-9.
Coming up, California will face off against Foothill at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. The last three games the Falcons have played have been within two runs, so don't be surprised if it's a close one. Bishop O'Dowd does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
