Sahuarita had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. They blew past the Mohave Thunderbirds 11-1 on Saturday. The result was nothing new for the Mustangs, who have now won 22 games by six runs or more so far this season.
Jayd Villa made a splash while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out seven batters over six innings while giving up just one earned run off five hits (and only one walk). She has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than one walk in three consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with two RBI.
In other batting news, Sahuarita let Callie Fox and Emily Donia run wild. Fox went 2-for-3 with three runs and one double, while Donia went 2-for-3 with three RBI and one run. That's the most RBI Donia has posted since back in April.
Sahuarita kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least ten hits in six consecutive matches.
Sahuarita's victory was their 16th straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 24-5. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.7 runs over those games. As for Mohave, the loss snapped their winning streak at five games and leaves them with a 16-11 record.
Coming up, Sahuarita will head out to take on Mica Mountain at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Mustangs 2.4, the Thunderbolts 3.8) so any runs scored will be well earned. Mohave does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
