Emma Brannan put in work while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out 13 batters over six innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off five hits.

Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.6 runs over those games. As for Cape Coral, their defeat dropped their record down to 8-4.

Both Fort Myers and Cape Coral just can’t seem to miss. The Green Wave have been making plenty of contact this season, having averaged 9.5 hits per game. However, it’s not like Cape Coral struggles in that department as they’ve been averaging only 5.1 hits. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.

Fort Myers got the ‘W’ in their previous meeting back in April of 2021 against Cape Coral by a conclusive 15-0 score. Do the Green Wave have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Seahawks turn the tables on them? We’ll have the answer soon enough.
