The scorekeeper got an easy start on Thursday as neither Marissa/Coulterville nor Valmeyer made it on the board until the fifth inning. The Meteors blew past the Pirates 7-0. The result was nothing new for the Meteors, who have now won seven matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.
Analiese Howell was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run while striking out 11 over seven innings pitched. Those 11 strikeouts gave her a new career-high. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with two RBI and one run.
Howell wasn't the only one making solid contact as three players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Paityn Hand, who went a perfect 4-for-4 with two runs, one stolen base, and one double. Hand has been hot recently, having posted three or more hits the last three times she's played. Ayla Ranck was another, going 2-for-4 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.
The victory (which was Marissa/Coulterville's third in a row) raised their record to 9-4. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.3 runs on average over those games. As for Valmeyer, their loss was their third straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 2-6.
The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Marissa/Coulterville beat the Pirates by a score of 12-0 on Monday.
