Natalie Simpson was dynamite on Friday, pitching two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her seventh in a row with one or fewer earned runs. On the season, she has been strong no matter where she plays. On the mound, she has an ERA of 0.18 over 40 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat she has slashed 0.571/0.667/1.238 with 15 RBI.
Looking ahead, Simpson and Bucksport will look to defend their home field on Tuesday against Mattanawcook at 4:30 p.m. The Golden Bucks got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Lynx thanks in part to Simpson: she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out 13 over six innings pitched. Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
