Coalfield waltzed into their contest on Tuesday with three straight wins... but they left with four. They were the clear victors by a 10-4 margin over the Midway Green Wave. Considering the Yellow Jackets have won nine matchups by more than five runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
Olivia Laymance spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned (and two unearned) runs on three hits and racked up 15 Ks. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in 12 consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Ashton Chamblee, who went 2-for-4 with one home run, four RBI, and two runs. Baylee Chadwick was another key player, scoring a run while going 1-for-4.
Chamblee wasn't the only one making solid contact: Coalfield kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 13 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in seven consecutive games.
Coalfield pushed their record up to 14-2-1 with the victory, which was their tenth straight at home dating back to last season. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.7 runs over those games. As for Midway, their loss dropped their record down to 1-12.
Coming up, Coalfield will look to defend their home field on Thursday against Oneida at 6:00 p.m. As for Midway, they will square off against Lenoir City at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Green Wave's pitchers better be ready for this one: the Panthers have averaged an impressive 8.7 runs per game this season.
