On the hit side, Miapozar was incredible, making it a perfect 4-for-4 with four runs, four RBIs and one double. Ariana Dominguez also deserves some recognition as she hit the first triple of the season.
Coconino pushed the record to 18-4 with a victory. The victory on these roads was thanks to their pitching efforts, and on average they only surrendered 0.9 runs in those games. As for Mohave, they now have an 8-7 victory record.
Friday’s game will be a test for pitchers from both teams. Mohave has been in touch this season and has averaged 0.355 batting average. But that’s not like Coconino’s struggle in that division, as they averaged .391. Both teams are extremely capable at the plate, so fans need to be ready for an impressive hit performance.
Mohave may still be hurt after an 8-0 defeat he got from Coconino at last Monday’s meeting. Can the Thunderbirds revenge their losses, or is history destined to repeat itself? You’ll understand immediately.
