#StateToTheShow: Athletes Unlimited Week 2
August 08, 2022 | Softball
ROSEMONT, Ill. – Mia Davidson and DJ Sanders were back in action over the weekend for Week 2 of the Athletes Unlimited season. While Davidson made a splash with two long balls, Sanders' team had the better record and won the duo's head-to-head matchup.
Sanders started the Friday and Sunday games for Team Jaquish (Orange) as the designated player. Davidson also started at DP in all three games for Team Eberle (Gold).
Saturday was the Bulldogs' best day at the ballpark. Davidson launched the first homer of her professional career on the first pitch she saw that day. Meanwhile Sanders' second single of the day helped spark a four-run rally in the bottom of the seventh to lift her squad to a 9-8 win against Team Harshman (Purple).
On Sunday, Davidson again left the yard, giving her back-to-back games with a homer. She now sits just outside the top-10 in the league with a .643 slugging percentage through six games.
