There were a bunch of great defensive plays. Balleiving had several fantastic plays from the Huelskamps. Scott Huelskamp had a double play in the top of the 2nd inning and Candra Huelskamp had a badass kick out as the catcher in the top of the 4th inning. But the best defensive play came off a Balleiving blast to Hard's center fielder Doug Tally. Doug made the catch and quickly relayed it in to the pitcher Blair Watkins.

Flour's Ted Gunn accounted for one of those runs with a RBI single. Lash would get some good defense along the way from Brocklie Jacobs and Chuck Marian.
