Charles was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with four RBI and one double.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Andrea Guerrero, who went 2-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and two RBI. Another player making a difference was Samarah Martinez, who scored two runs and stole a base while getting on base in three of her four plate appearances.
United South has been performing well recently as they've won eight of their last ten games. That's provided a nice bump to their 10-9-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.3 runs over those games. Del Rio's defeat dropped their record down to 5-15.
Del Rio beat United South 4-1 in their previous meeting back in April of 2024. Will Del Rio repeat their success, or does United South have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
