After two games on the road, Friendly is heading back home. They will take on the Oxon Hill Clippers at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
Friendly fell victim to Surrattsville and their airtight pitching crew back in March. They fell just short of the Hornets by a score of 2-0.
Meanwhile, Oxon Hill had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They never let Central onto the board and left with a 27-0 victory on Monday.
Kennedy Woodruff made a big impact no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out six batters over two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). Woodruff was also stellar in the batter's box, firing off two home runs, seven RBI, and two stolen bases while going 4-for-4.
In other batting news, Miyanna Fields was a standout: she got on base in all four of her plate appearances with a home run, two stolen bases, and three runs. Haja Sankoh was another key contributor, scoring two runs and stealing seven bases while getting on base in all three of her plate appearances.
Friendly might still be hurting after the 28-5 loss they got from Oxon Hill when the teams last played back in April of 2023. Can Friendly avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
