It was a windy and difficult day for the Mustang defense, but C. Milton was able to score in 5 of the 7 innings of play to earn the victory at Rising Sun today. Down by two thanks to a Caroline Weimer RBI single and Catherine Kim's run on a passed ball; the Tigers looked to get right back into it in the bottom half of the first when leadoff batter Miranda O’Donnell knocked one to deep right for a triple. Two plays later however with one out the Tiger 3-batter looked to drop a blooper into left when Mustang outfielder Rachel Knoebel made a major-league sliding catch and then caught O’Donnell leading from third before she could tag for a double-play.
Rising Sun never quite recovered, giving up runs to the Mustangs in 4 of the remaining 6 innings, and only scoring single runs in the 5th, 6th, and 7th.
Morghan Fulton earned the Mustang win in the circle, allowing 3 runs (2 earned) on 5 hits and 2 walks while striking out 5. Tiger pitcher Megan Keene took the loss giving up 7 runs (6 earned) on 10 hits plus 3 walks and 2 hit batters, also striking out 5.
C. Milton improves to 7-3 (5-3 UCBAC Chesapeake) ahead of Wednesday’s match against AA County’s Broadneck High School.
