Harrisburg won the last time they faced Manila and things went their way on Tuesday too. The Hornets came out on top against the Lions by a score of 7-3.

Hawlee Morris spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned (and one unearned) runs on 11 hits and racked up eight Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks any time she's pitched this season.

On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Hannah Mross, who scored a run while going 2-for-4. The team also got some help courtesy of Sofie Mooney, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-3.
