MT. BERRY, GA- Millsaps fell behind early in both games against the Berry Vikings on Friday and dropped a pair of conference games, 9-1 and 8-0 at Ford Field.
Game One Box
In game one, Berry scored three times in the first inning on just one hit. Walks did in the Majors in game one as three bases loaded walks led to the three runs. Berry tacked on three more in the second on four hits including three that went for extra bases.
In the fourth, the Majors got on the board when Hannah Doggett doubled home Megan Murray who had doubled earlier in the inning. But the Majors could only manage a run and the Vikings answered in the bottom of the fourth and added two more in the fifth to invoke the run rule.
Danielle Faucheux got the loss in game one as Berry knocked her out of the game after the first inning.
In game two, Berry again scored early in a 8-0 victory. The Vikings scored two in the second and three in the third off Cassidy DeNoon, who got the game two start. Millsaps could not solve Berry starter Kayla Davis, who held the Majors to just one hit over five innings.
The Vikings tacked on two additional runs in the fourth and one in the fifth to once again invoke the run rule.
The losses drop the Majors to 14-8 overall and 7-8 in the SAA. The two teams will wrap up their four-game set tomorrow with another double header. First pitch is set for 11AM central.
