Game Two, 6-8 Loss
 
How It Happened: Looking to capitalize off the first game, the Charger bats cooled down as they couldn't get anything on the board in the first two innings. The Express, however, managed to score six runs in those two innings to jump to a 6-0 lead over the Chargers. In the top of the third inning, Clemens got the Chargers going with a three-run home run to bring the game within three runs. The Express put two more runs on the board through the fourth inning to make it a 8-4 ballgame. The Chargers looked to rally as Noelle Martin reached on an error in the fifth inning to bring home Clemens. Then in the seventh inning, Adalyn Steiner brought in Sheyenne King off a sacrifice hit and Clemens scored off a drop ball third strike to make it 6-8. But, the Chargers rally fell short and the Express went on to win 8-6.
 
By the Numbers: The Chargers had eight hits for six runs and four RBIs… Express had 11 hits for eight runs and five RBIs… Clemens went 3-4 including a home run and three RBIs… Sheyenne King went 2-4 with two runs.
