Winning always takes teamwork, but on Saturday Bailey Payne stepped things up a notch to give Nettleton the 'W'. Payne wasn't messing around, striking out 11 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off six hits (and not a single walk). The pitching appearance was her sixth straight with two or fewer walks.
Payne's strong effort led Nettleton over Belmont and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. Thanks in part to Payne's efforts, the Tigers will roll in on a six-game winning streak. Will Payne and the rest of the team keep the streak alive? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
