After playing in a couple of rough games in a row,
Samantha's team finally put it all together. Playing at Fenton, the Holly team
jumped out early, going through the order to score 8 runs. Sam had a single and
an RBI in this inning, but she wasn't able to come around and score. Holly
tacked on another run in the second inning, but wound up giving up 6 runs in the
bottom of the inning to make it close at 9-6. The Holly bats heated up again in
the third, and they plated 8 more runs. Sam singled again in this inning, and
this time she was able to come around and score. Fenton scored once more in the
fourth inning, but that was it, giving Holly their second victory of the season
by a 17-8 score.
