Glendale had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the ten-run drubbing they dealt Van Nuys on Saturday. The Glendale Nitros blew past the Van Nuys Wolves 11-1. The result was nothing new for the Nitros, who have now won four games by eight runs or more so far this season.
Natalie Minkler spent all five innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered a run (which was unearned) on zero hits. That's the fewest hits she has allowed since back in April of 2024.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Rachel Francis, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs, one triple, and one RBI. Carla Bedolla was another key player, going 1-for-3 with three RBI and one double.
Glendale's win bumped their record up to 6-4-1. As for Van Nuys, they are on a four-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-3.
