Deana Linares turned in nothing short of a gem on Saturday,   striking out nine batters over  five innings while giving up just one earned run off   three  hits (and only one walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her tenth in a row with one or fewer  walks. This season,  she  has an ERA of 2.89 over 53.1 innings pitched.
 Looking ahead,  Linares and Danville will welcome St. Joseph-Ogden  at 4:30  p.m.  on Tuesday. The Vikings haven't beaten the Spartans recently, having gone 0-10 since April of 2015.
