On the mound, she struck out nine batters over five innings while giving up just two earned (and four unearned) runs off six hits (and only one walk). Ruggieri was also big at the plate, getting on base in five of her six plate appearances with two runs and one RBI. That's the most runs she has posted since back in April.
