Lila Murphy turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday: she struck out nine batters over six innings while giving up three earned (and three unearned) runs off six hits. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her fourth in a row with less than two walks allowed. For the year, Murphy has an ERA of 3.18 over 96.3 innings pitched.
Murphy and Puckett are on the road again on Tuesday to play Raleigh at 6:15 p.m. Murphy has dominated as far as walks are concerned (she's averaged 1.1 per game this season), but she's got her work cut out for her considering Raleigh has only allowed 3.57 per game this season.
