Last-instar Field Cricket Nymph
This looks like a female field cricket who has
just
molted out into her last nymphal stage and not coloured up or fully dried yet. The next time she molts, she'll become an adult, and given the date you took her photo, she's quite likely a black field or fall field cricket or
Gryllus pennsylvanicus
, the most common field cricket species found in your region.
A photo of what your nymph will more-or-less look like as she molts one final time (yours will have shorter wings):
