Hilary Barnett made a big impact no matter where she played. She struck out six batters over five innings while giving up three earned (and one unearned) runs off three hits (and only one walk). Barnett has been consistent…

The “Heartbreak Kids” did not wind up feeling the heartbreak in this one as Devine’s 3-0 lead that they took into the top of the 6th inning wound up holding up as they held on for the 3-2 win at…
