Nobody could stop Corinne Mueller on Thursday as she struck out ten batters over seven innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off seven hits. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her tenth in a row with two or fewer walks. For the season, she has been strong no matter where she plays. On the mound, she has an ERA of 2.58 over 62.1 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat she has slashed 0.442/0.529/0.860 with 17 RBI and 5 home runs.
Looking ahead, Mueller and Steeleville will challenge New Athens at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The Warriors got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Yellow Jackets thanks in part to Mueller: she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out seven over five innings pitched. Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
