Versus USD (2/16)
Starting pitcher — senior Maggie Balint — began the night by striking out two of the first three batters she faced against crosstown rivals USD (3-3) on Wednesday night. Her swing-and-miss stuff would translate in the second inning as well. Balint would go on to strike out the side in the second inning, and collect 11 strikeouts in the outing.
Balint would be perfect through the first three frames until she gave up an opposite-field single in the fourth inning. That runner would come around to score after Balint gave up a two-out RBI double to senior Noelle Hee, giving the Toreros a 1-0 lead.
