MAJORS AND PANTHERS PLAYING THREE IN BSC

BIRMINGHAM, AL- Due to the increasing chance of Sunday rain, the Majors and Panthers played three on Saturday afternoon. 

In game one, the Panthers escaped with a 4-3 victory. Bethany Fronk helped her own cause with a two-run triple for BSC in the victory. 

Millsaps scored first in game one, Missy Romero was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded to force in a run. After the Panthers made it a 3-1 game, Romero struck again. The shortstop parked a two-run home run to tie the game at 3-3. 

In the bottom of the fifth, Micaela Beck hit a solo shot to give BSC a 4-3 lead. The Majors would strand two in the top of the sixth but could not score. Danielle Faucheux got the loss, going the distance and allowing the four runs on eight hits. The righty struck out one and walked one. 

 

Game Two Box

In game two, another one-run game went to the Panthers, as they took the second game, 2-1. Cassidy DeNoon allowed just seven hits over six innings and the two runs, but took the tough luck loss. 

Millsaps left two runners on in each of the first two innings and BSC scored in the bottom of the first to take the early lead. 

The Majors were second down in order in the third, fourth and fifth, while the Panthers scratched across another run in the fourth to lead 2-0. Millsaps scored their lone run in the fifth when Megan Murray doubled and later scored on a throwing error off the bat of Katelyn Murray. Millsaps went quietly in the seventh as BSC took the first two games on Saturday. 

Game Three Box

In game three, BSC scored six in the fifth inning to win 8-0 in five innings. 

The Majors were held to just two hits in the game, singles by Megan Murray and Rayne Gravat. A two-out single in the first pushed across the first Panther run off game three starter Cassidy DeNoon. An unearned run crossed in the third to make it 2-0.

DeNoon exited the game in the third and Danielle Faucheux got out of the third inning jam and worked a quiet fourth. The Panthers struck for six runs on six hits in the bottom of the fifth to enforce the run rule and take the game 8-0. 

The Majors now sit at 4-4 in conference. They will play host to the Rhodes Lynx next weekend with first pitches on Saturday and Sunday set for noon.
