Hershey was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their eighth straight defeat. They came up short against the Alliance Bulldogs, falling 12-6. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Panthers of the 13-0 loss they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in August of 2023.
Jaycie Reitz made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and got on base in all three of her plate appearances with a triple, a stolen base, and two RBI. Another player making a difference was Katie Abbott, who scored a run and stole three bases while going 1-for-2.
Even though they lost, Hershey hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Alliance struck out eight times.
Hershey's defeat dropped their record down to 0-2.
Coincidentally, both will both be playing Highway 6 the next time they take the field. Hershey will head out to face Highway 6 at 4:30 p.m. on Friday, while Alliance will play them later in the day, at TBD.
