An Important Fourth
The only scoring for both teams came in the fourth inning. After each team only put up zeros on the scoreboard through three, the Cardinals broke the stalemate with an RBI single. Cardinals catcher Rebecca Chung earned her team’s first hit of the day with a line-drive triple to left field.
On the very next pitch from Hightower, Camryn Greenwood capitalized with a soft liner into right field for the RBI single. But the Cardinals’ lead wouldn’t last long. Cheyenne Lindsey and company made sure of that.
The Gators Turn
A walk and two singles loaded the bases for the Gators with only one out in the home half of the fourth. With Julia Cottrill, Avery Goelz and Jaimie Hoover all on base, Bryn Thomas came up to the bat as a pinch hitter.
