The last batter pops up and Kamen makes a nice grab to retire the side. Gretna scores 1.
- Ben, Jackson and Ryan are retired in order to end the inning. Ryan hit a bullet to the pitcher, but he caught it for out #3. Score now 3-6.
Inning 7: - First Gretna batter is thrown out 4-3, but next one drives one that’s too hot to handle and it gets past the infield. But no worries, Kamen gets the next two with Ks to end the game.
