West End waltzed into their match on Tuesday with two straight wins... but they left with three. They put the hurt on the Pleasant Valley Raiders with a sharp 8-1 victory. Considering the Patriots have won 14 games by more than five runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
Emma Franklin spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned run on five hits and racked up six Ks.
On the hitting side, Liddy Falkner was incredible, going a perfect 4-for-4 with two runs, two doubles, and two RBI. That's the most doubles she has posted since back in March. Kennedi Nix was another key player, going 2-for-4 with three RBI and one stolen base.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact: West End kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least 11 hits in three consecutive contests.
West End's win was their ninth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 25-10. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Pleasant Valley, they moved to 39-15 with that loss, which also ended their five-game winning streak.
As of now, neither West End nor the Raiders have any future games scheduled.
