  • Tampa left nine runners on base compared to Lynn's one runner left on. 

• Game 2

  • Saviskas got the nod for Lynn in game two, tossing her second consecutive complete game. She allowed one run on two hits and struck out two Spartans.

  • Dooley started in the circle for Tampa and allowed one hit through three innings. Corynn Miner (4-2) got the win in relief allowing no runs on two hits through the final four innings.
