Liberty had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 18-run drubbing they dealt Yosemite on Friday. The Hawks' pitchers stepped up to hand the Badgers an 18-0 shutout. Considering the Hawks have won 11 matchups by more than five runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Macie Webster looked comfortable as she struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off three hits (and not a single walk). She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in five consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Liberty got a massive performance out of Leilah Uriarte, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run, six RBI, and three runs. That's the most RBI Uriarte has posted since back in March. Another player making a difference was Ari Aguayo, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with four runs, two stolen bases, and one double.
Liberty hit smart and finished the game with only two strikeouts. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Yosemite struck out ten times.
The victory (which was Liberty's fifth in a row) raised their record to 15-7. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.8 runs on average over those games. As for Yosemite, they are on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-9.
