It was action-packed from the first pitch to the last as both teams battled and fought for runs and outs to try to keep momentum on their sides. Crystal City got out to an early 2-0 lead heading into the bottom of the 2nd, but Lytle struck back with 3 runs of their own taking us into the 3rd inning up 3-2!
As the game continued on, Crystal City seemed to have control over the next 2 innings as they took a 7-3 lead heading into the bottom of the 5th inning, but Lytle sure didn't go down quietly! Every player contributed towards fueling energy, excitement, and determination. In the bottom of the 5th inning, the bats exploded as the Pirates gained 6 runs on 9 hits, taking control of the game and shifting momentum back in our favor 9-7.
Precious Carrillo finished strong in the circle for the Pirates as she had back to back 1-2-3 innings to complete the game. Jalyn Aguinaga, Jahzlyn Aguinaga, Sam Dear, and Eleni Keith all accounted for 3 hits each.
