Let's start in the first inning, the Saints' Mikah Schultz pitched an excellent opening inning to go to the bottom half at 0-0. The Saints then, got the offense rolling. Natalee Holste hit into a ground out but a run came across for the first run of the game. Shortly after that, Brynn Bailey had a sac fly and another run came across.


Mikah Schultz helped herself out a couple of batters later as she smoked a triple and made it 3-0. That's what the score was going into the second.
