The
Aces got in a few more practice games, with almost the whole team in
attendance. Holly led
the team batting for the weekend at 0.667. In the first game, the
Aces scored 8 runs in the top of the first inning. Jamie went 2-3
with a single and a double and scored twice with one RBI. Kalyn
hit a two-run home run. Holly singled and drove in two runs, and
Megan had an RBI. Rhiannon pitched 4 innings and the defense
allowed no base runners.
The next game ended 1-1 tie with an unearned run as Holly
pitched 5
innings and allowed only 3 hits to the Avengers. After hitting a
two-out double, Holly scored as Jenna reached on an error for the Aces
run. Miller, Megan, Kalyn, Kesha, and Rhiannon also had hits.
Beth pitched 4.0 innings and allowed only two hits
in a win over Impact Gold, with one unearned run scoring that reached
on an error. The Aces scored two in the first inning after a walk
and a hit batter put two on and Kalyn drove both in with a single. Holly also singled in the inning.
On Sunday, Beth pitched 3 innings against the Eclipse
Gold, allowing 4 hits and one earned run, and left with the game tied
1-1. Holly struggled
a little in her first inning on the mound, and allowed 3 runs on 4
hits, but didn’t allow another base runner in the following two
innings. The Aces scored in the 2nd after Holly singled and came
home on a double by Jenna. The Aces scored again in the 4th after
Kalyn walked and Holly drove her in with a double.
In the final game, the Aces managed 13 hits: Beth
hit a double with 2 RBI, Holly was 3-3 with a double, Kalyn was 1-3
with an RBI, and Jamie had an RBI. Lindsey was 2-3 with an RBI, Rhi was
2-3 with 3 RBI, Jenna, Kesha, and Miller singled, and Miller had an
RBI. Kelsea hit a triple. Rhiannon allowed 4 hits and walked 3
while striking out 4. The defense played almost flawlessly to preserve the shut out,
with highlights of Lindsey throwing out a runner at the plate in the
first inning, and Beth holding a runner at 2nd after a great catch in
right field in the 6th.
