    For a while it appeared as though neither the girls from the Mega Coney Island team or their competition across the field, the Irish Brothers, wanted to score today. To call it a pitcher's duel wouldn't be quite right - they use a pitching machine, after all, plus there were hits here and there. In fact, each team had a bases-loaded situation early on. Neither team was able to get that crucial RBI hit, however. Jayden struggled today, striking out in both of her plate appearances. She also didn't see much in the way of action in the field today. The Mega team managed to grab a 1-0 lead, and for a while it seemed like that might be enough to secure the victory. Unfortunately the Irish Brothers team had the last at-bat of the game, and they used to their advantage, scoring the tying run. The Mega girls were able to stop the bleeding at 1, resulting in their second tie of the season with a 1-1 score.
