4. Texas Aces (visitors) vs. Ballistic (home). Won 1-0. Pitchers Rhiannon/Morgan.
The Texas Aces managed to come up with a win over the
Deer Park Ballistic in a very tight game that eliminated the Ballistic
and advanced the Texas Aces to the final round. Both teams had excellent
pitching and strong defense that kept the game scoreless through 6 innings.
Rae, pitching for the Ballistic, allowed only 5 hits with 1 walk and 2
strikeouts in 7 full innings pitched. For the Texas Aces, Rhiannon
pitched 5 innings and allowed only 3 hits with 1 walk and 2 strikeouts,
and Morgan pitched 2 innings with no hits, 1 walk and 1 strikeout.
The seventh inning was played by compressed International
tiebreaker rules. The last two batters were awarded 2nd and 3rd base,
and each batter started with a 1-1 count. In the top of the 7th,
after one batter struck out, Rhiannon laid down a bunt and was allowed
to take first base while the defense held the runner at 3rd. Brytish
then hit a pop-up to 3rd, which looked like would result in a double play,
since Amy at 3rd didn't tag up. However, in her haste to make the
play, the 3rd baseman dropped the ball, which allowed Amy to score.
The Ballistic did recover and get the force out at 3rd. The Ballistic
got the third out with a fly ball to shortstop.
In the bottom of the 7th, Morgan walked the first batter
to load the bases. The next batter hit to first base for a fielder's
choice that got the first out at home. The second batter hit to third
base for a fielder's choice that got the second out at home. Morgan
struck out the last batter, which resulted in a win for the Texas Aces! |
