As for Bellingham, the win made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 7-8. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 3 runs in those games.

On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Ashley Kamin, who got on base in two of her three plate appearances with three stolen bases and one run. Cassidy Leger was another key player, going 2-for-3 with one stolen base, one run, and one double.
