The crew of Sotkamo Jymy, who slipped from the top spot in Superpesis, corrected their course on Saturday by beating their visitors Seinäjoki Jymy-Jussit 2–0 (3–2, 2–0) in Hiuka. The three-point victory was the first for Kainu in the last seven matches. The winning streak of mutual encounters against the namesake club Jymy-Jussey for the Sotka team is already 19 matches long.
– Emotionally, we played a good match. The away game made it possible to win again. In the indoor game, the performance fell a little short, commented Huili, who returned to Jymy’s lineup after two games Kalle Kuosmanen.
The running party of Pattijoki Athletes and Joensuu Maila in Raahe lasted until the second round of the homecoming race, until the home team had to be humbled by a 1–2 defeat (1–8, 11–5, 1–2). For JoMa, the victory was the seventh in a row in mutual meetings.
The game winning run Joosua Rätön with a pincushion brought Niko Korhonen (at 8/10), who was at the top of the batting statistics, only two successes away from the hundred mark.
Manse PP returned to Kaupp with victory
In the Women’s Super Pes, Manse PP’s return to the home stadium in Kaupp was victorious, when the team beat Jyväskylä Kirittäret in the homecoming competition 2–1k (1–0, 2–4, 1–0). At the beginning of the season, the stadium underwent renovations, which is why teams from Tampere played their first games of the season on other fields. Manse PP left the guests, who started the homecoming race, to zero, so it was enough to win when Anna Ala-Kauhaluma brought Virpi Hukan home in another pair.
The relegation race was also concluded in two other matches on Saturday. In Vaasa, Mailattaret beat Helsinki’s Roihuttaret in periods 2–1k (6–1, 0–1, 1–0). The home team won the first inning with a clear run difference, as the innings progressed especially in the third inning, which brought five runs. In the second period, the only run came in the inning of Roihuttari, which moved the decision to the home run. That’s where the hitter of Mailattari’s winning run was Pink Wastewho brought home Petra Äkkinen.
In Hyvinkää, the kick-off race ended with the disappointment of the home crowd, when Tahko bowed to Hamina’s Palloilijoi 1–2k (1–0, 0–8, 3–4). Hamina’s run account waited to open for the entire first inning, but the second innings started to get better when the first inning to bat Roosa Lappalainen shook the ball through from the second side and went around the kunnar. He won the homecoming competition Reetta Juntunen the punch that drove you home Jasmiina Juntunen.
Seinäjoki’s Maila-Jussit continued their good performances by beating Rauman Fera 2–0 this time (4–0, 2–0). SMJ lost to Lapuan Virkiä a few days ago, but before this has gone from victory to victory. There were many successful ones against Fera. Susanna Ojala got two strikeouts on the record and Jenni Matola two runs brought.
