GAME 1
The top of the third inning saw Humboldt take a 1-0 lead after Micaela Harris hit a double down the left field line that scored Shelby Shanks, who hit a single to right field earlier in the inning. Sonoma struck back in the bottom of the fourth after Giana Hays knocked in a run on a double to right center field. A three hit inning for the Seawolves tied the game at one run a piece. Neither team was able to scratch a run across the scoreboard through seven innings of play.
