BC Softball won 12-2 against LA Mission College with a bam. A game of wind and a win.
Pitching for BC was Serenity Angulo (3), and she was getting LA to swing. Lead off 9 for LA Mission was at third while 23 hit a ground ball to shortstop Sadie Salas (1). She watched 9 try to run back to third, throwing it to third baseman Alexia Martinez (13) tagging out 9 and stopping LA from scoring. BC got on the board first with Aliya Perez (4) scoring on a pass ball. Bases loaded for Elizabeth Alderete (16) when she got hit by a pitch, walking in a run.
BC leaded 2-0 entering the second inning. LA got into a similar situation, bases loaded for 12, she got a single along with a Run Batted In (RBI). 9 wanted in the action too, she got a single to center field bringing in another run. Tied 2-2 ending this inning.
BC defense stopped LA from a chance of getting hits. As the clouds moved, the sun shined down on the field giving the team light. Angulo (3) hit a home run to left field. Two outs, bases loaded for Isabella Harrison (0) she reached base on LA’s fielding error allowing Andrea Barajas (8) to score now 4-2.
BC retired the sides for LA, now entering the bottom of the fourth. This was BC inning. Perez (4) tagged up to score on Brylee Bramhall (11) fly out. Angulo repeated the same approach on her last at bat, hitting another solo home run towards left center, making the score 6-2. Martinez (13) waited for Alderete (16) to hit a single to score earning herself an RBI. Barajas (8) and Alderete (16) were on base and that motivated Cambria Scott (18) to go long, hitting a 3-run home run to left center.
Scott’s (18) said her offensive mindset was “If [pitchers] are throwing in, I won’t go for it, but today I had to make adjustments, I swung at anything I could get ahold of.” In this case, it was a home run. The score was now 10-2 but BC did not show signs of stopping yet. Harrison (0) and Perez (4) also scored with help from Bramhall’s (11) single and a walk from Angulo (3).
Entering the fifth inning, score was now 12-2. For LA 10 and 23 got out on ground balls, until 44 hit a double but was left on base as BC got the last out ending the game. This became BC’s tenth win for the season. Softball’s next home games are Saturday March 29th double header at 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.
