While Yucaipa might've come up empty on Tuesday, Emily Mendoza wasn't going down without a fight. Mendoza wasn't messing around, striking out six batters over four innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off six hits (and not a single walk). The pitching appearance was her seventh straight with two or fewer walks.
Coming up, Mendoza and Yucaipa are taking a road trip to face off against Citrus Valley at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. The last time Mendoza duked it out with the Blackhawks (two weeks ago), the Thunderbirds came out on top by a score of 7-4. Will another strong game from Mendoza be enough to do it again?
