Manchester would threaten a couple times without crossing the plate. The Squires drew two walks in the first, had a walk and a single in the third and a single and a walk in the sixth before breaking the ice in the seventh. With one out Emma West would reach on an error. Torina Runkel would follow with a double with West being thrown out at the plate. Evans would follow with a single that scored Runkel to make it 4-1.
