After topping Akron on Friday night, the teams met again Saturday night at the Ballpark at Rosemont. This time the Racers prevailed 3-2.

The Bandits took a 2-0 lead in the first as Amber Patton opened the inning with a single up the middle and scored one pitch later as Alisa Goler hit a double down the left-field line. Adrienne Monka continued the rally with a blooper to left field.

In the circle for the Bandits was Michelle Moses, who earned her second NPF start of the season. Hillary Bach (3-3) picked up the win for the Racers pitching all 7 innings.

Moses started strong, keeping the Racers off base through the first two innings. However, Akron tied the game in the top of the third on 3 consecutive singles to make it 2-2.

Later in the inning, Nicole Trimboli’s single brought Megan Bush home from second with the final run of the game.
