Strike Outs
“We faced Abi in the state semifinals and she was excellent. She allowed six hits and struck out 12 in a 1-0 victory. I’m pretty sure that’s the fewest number of strikeouts she recorded the entire season in a complete game, which is pretty impressive. She’s the best pitcher in the state and her offensive numbers would put her up there, too.”
