It's hard to turn regular season success into postseason wins, a fact Brennan can now relate to. They fell just short of the Reagan Rattlers by a score of 1-0 on Friday. Considering the last time the Bears couldn't score was back in February, the team can't take the result too hard.
JuJu Larson spent all 7.2 innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned run on three hits and racked up six Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances.
