Tigers vs. Reds
What a difference a game makes! The Tigers took the field for game 2 with a new level of confidence in front of another capacity crowd.

drive at 3rd base to earn a game ball. Sydney Provo showed incredible courage
after getting plunked in the hand by a pitched ball. She wiped away the tears,
got back in the batters box and finished her at bat. That display of effort and

The Dodgers played their longest game of the year against their division foes the Phillies. The game was a defensive battle between both squads.

Andriana Herman also earned a game ball for her clutch hitting, offensive hustle and defensive skills.
