Write up from Tuesday nights Minor Girls game!
Pittsfield and Alton battled through another back and forth showdown Tuesday night, finishing in another 15-15 tie.
Livia Worthen got the start in the circle for Pittsfield and battled into the second inning before Kinzlee Babcock came on in relief and continued the strong effort.
Pittsfield’s defense continued its recent run of strong play as Worthen and Shelby Blanchard teamed up for an out at home in the first inning, marking the third straight game the duo has thrown out a runner trying to score. Aspyn Gauthier and Anabella Clement also turned in strong performances behind the plate.
Pittsfield got on the board early in the bottom of the first when Babcock stole home. Worthen followed with a steal of home of her own before Kit Forst drove in another run with a single. Forst finished 1 for 1 with an RBI, a walk and two runs scored.
The defensive play of the game came when Pittsfield caught an Alton runner trapped between third base and home. Crisp throws from Worthen to Babcock and back to Worthen completed the rundown before the runner could reach the plate.
Pittsfield’s offense kept rolling in the second inning as Gauthier, Stella Blanchard, Addilyn Gionet, Clement and Babcock all worked walks to open the frame. That brought Worthen to the plate in a key moment, and she delivered with an RBI double to cap the inning. Worthen finished 1 for 1 with an RBI, a hit by pitch and a run scored. The double completed her cycle for the season and extended her hitting streak to eight games.

Scarlet Lake and Amiah Gates added four steals apiece, while Babcock, Gauthier and Worthen each collected three.
