How it Happened

Babik started out strong picking up her second and third strikeouts as part of a 1-2-3 second inning.
After a leadoff triple to start the third, Babik bounced back to retire the next three Japer hitters and keep the game scoreless.
Shelby Smith (Friendswood, Texas) led off the fourth with a single before being pinch run for by Miranda Arruda (Pawcatuck, Conn.). Arruda would be moved to second before stealing third and coming home to score on a Baylee Allender (Rosharon, Texas) sacrifice fly to make it 1-0.
Babik would not surrender the lead as she would fire four more scoreless frames enroute to the complete game shutout victory.
