  • The game turned quickly in the bottom of the second when Parkside erupted for six runs on five hits, including a two-RBI single from Jake Petasek and RBI knocks from Josh Wicker and Owen Brock. A balk and a fielder's choice added to the damage, giving the Rangers a 6-0 advantage.
  • Purdue Northwest battled back in the fifth.

The Breakdown
Game 1: W (11-3) – 9 Innings

  • Parkside answered in the bottom half with a two-run homer by Dylan Sayles, but the Pride responded immediately. In the second inning, Barrett launched a three-run shot over the left field fence to make it 5-2.
  • After a few scoreless innings, Purdue Northwest broke it open in the sixth. Barrett delivered again, singling through the right side to drive in two more runs. A wild pitch allowed another to score, and Ballard grounded out to bring home Barrett, stretching the lead to 9-2.
  • The Pride tacked on two more insurance runs—one in the eighth on a Paul Feret (Naperville, Ill./Neuqua Valley) RBI single and one in the ninth on a sac fly by Earley.
