4/15/08 Eagles Stop Lightning's Charge In 7th Inning--Win 4-3
The Sage Hill Lightning had already scored two runs in their final inning rally to trail by one, and after an intentional walk to load the bases, Eagles pitcher Kalyn Carpenter forced a groundout to end the dramatic game 4-3. Earlier in this half of the inning, it appeared the Eagles had escaped with the win, but a bases loaded double play to end the game was instead ruled obstruction at 1st base allowing the inning to continue for Sage Hill. Capri Ruiz and Bronwyn Seward each had two RBI's to lead the Eagles, the margin of victory coming in the fifth inning on Bronwyn's 2-strike groundout to the right side that scored Jesica Balmer from third base.
