Diablos Rojos Femenil Take Series Over Sultanes to Strengthen LMS Lead

Power hitting paired with stingy pitching has carried Mexico City's club to a 7-1 start.

Overview

  • Diablos opened the series with a 7-2 win at Estadio Alfredo Harp Helú, launching three home runs capped by back-to-back shots from Leannelys Zayas and Elizabeth Robert.
  • Carly Hoover locked down the opener with a complete game of seven innings, allowing seven hits with one walk and seven strikeouts to improve to 4-1.
  • The pitching staff reached a franchise mark of 25 consecutive scoreless innings before Sultanes scored in the third on a Baylee Klingler home run.
  • Diablos won the second game 7-3 as Yilian Tornés and Hoover combined to limit Monterrey to six hits and Zayas added another homer, pushing the leaders to 7-1.
  • Monterrey left the opener with injury concerns as Suka Van Gurp departed with a posterior thigh issue and shortstop Guadalupe Piña finished the game after a collision with left fielder Morgan Howe.
