Defense Costs Softball vs Saint Leo

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. – The Palm Beach Atlantic softball team concluded its series against Saint Leo on Saturday.

The Sailfish looked to avenge Friday's loss, taking an early lead in game one. The 'Fish failed to hold off the Saint Leo offense, eventually falling 6-2. PBA received an impressive pitching performance from Karen Vasquez in the second game, but defensive errors and a lack of offense cost the 'Fish. Saint Leo won the second game, 4-0.

PBA travels to Tampa next weekend for another three-game series. The first pitch of Friday's game in Tampa, Fla. starts at 6 p.m.

Game One – Saint Leo: 6 – PBA: 2

A Saint Leo error allowed Briana Rodriguez to reach base with one out in the first inning. She stole second base to set up an RBI single to left field from Evoni Rodriguez. The Sailfish nearly plated a second run after a single from Elisa Grande, but E. Rodriguez was thrown out at home.

The Lions tied the game in the third after a pair of hits and a stolen base. Saint Leo loaded the bases, but Lacy Marty limited the damage by forcing a strikeout and flyout to end the inning. SLU scored three runs in the fourth on two hits and an error to make it 4-0.

The Lions added two more runs on three hits in the sixth. In the seventh inning, Kendall Baer reached on a walk and advanced to third on an error. Baer scored on an RBI single up the middle by Madison Schlichte, making it 6-2. The Sailfish rally fell short after a double play.

Baer led PBA with two hits and a walk. The Sailfish totaled six hits in the game.

Marty got the start in the circle, tossing five innings. She surrendered four runs, two earned on six hits and two walks with one strikeout. Cambria Arturo pitched 1.2 scoreless innings in relief, allowing one hit.

Game Two – Saint Leo: 4 – PBA: 0

Vasquez pitched a complete game two, allowing just one earned run on seven hits with two walks and two strikeouts. The Sailfish defense struggled, recording six errors in the game, leading to three unearned runs.
