Granada Hills Charter had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the ten-run drubbing they dealt Los Altos on Saturday. The Highlanders blew past the Conquerors 12-2. The result was nothing new for the Highlanders, who have now won eight contests by ten runs or more so far this season.
Addison Moorman tossed a big game, striking out eight batters over five innings while giving up just two earned runs off three hits (and only one walk). She has been consistent : she hasn't given up more than one walk in five consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Annabella Ramirez and Lainey Brown did most of the damage at the plate: Ramirez got on base in three of her four plate appearances with one home run, four RBI, and two runs, while Brown went 2-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and three RBI. Another player making a difference was Zoe Justman, who went 1-for-3 with one home run and two runs.
Granada Hills Charter always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .514. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Los Altos only posted an OBP of .263.
The victory was the sixth in a row for Granada Hills Charter, bringing their record up to 15-2. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.3 runs on average over those games. As for Los Altos, with the defeat, they broke their three-game winning streak and moved their record to 11-6.
Looking ahead, Granada Hills Charter will be taking part in a tournament against California at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Highlanders 2.5, the Condors 2.6) so any runs scored will be well earned. As for Los Altos, they will head out on the road to challenge Alta Loma at 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Conquerors' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Braves have averaged an impressive 6.9 runs per game this season.
