Covington barely beat Bradford the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Buccaneers were the clear victors by an 8-2 margin over the Railroaders on Monday. The Buccaneers might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won ten matchups by six runs or more this season.
Covington let Jayda McClure and Ava Hartwig run wild. McClure went 2-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs, while Hartwig went 3-for-4 with two runs, two doubles, and one stolen base. That's the most doubles Hartwig has posted since back in May of 2025. Another player making a difference was Taylor Foutz, who went 1-for-3 with one home run.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Covington 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 ten hits in eight consecutive contests.
Covington's win was their 13th straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 12-2. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.9 runs on average over those games. As for Bradford, their loss dropped their record down to 3-3.
