It’s always a battle when these two teams get together and this time wouldn’t be any different with Emery scoring first and then taking the lead in the top of the fifth inning. The Dinos used a big sixth inning scoring seven runs and putting the game away.

Emery would get on the board first when Tylee Norton would score on a passed ball. In the bottom of the third inning Carbon would take the lead on a single swing from the bat of Stevie Oman sending a grand slam home run over the left field fence scoring Molly Horsley, Makayla Scovill and Gianna Bruno.

Bralin Wilde and Norton would each add home runs in the top of the fifth pushing the Emery lead to 6-4.

The Dinos would get it going again in the seventh inning with a Lyndsey Madrigal double that scored two runs. Bruno would step up to the plate next and empty the bases with a three run home run to left field. Emery would tack on two more runs in the seventh but Carbon held on to take the victory.

For the Spartans Tylee Norton had three RBIs in the contest while collecting four hits and scored two runs. Bralin Wilde would also put up three RBIs on three hits and scored two runs as well.
