Netz relied on her defense. Only two of MSU’s hits went out of the infield, and 12 were ground outs. She also double plays to end three consecutive innings. The other five runs were scored by playing “small ball,” a feat aided by a few MSU errors. Paige Dimler was hit by a pitch, and Blaise Biringer hit one down the left field line just out of reach of Paige Cook at third base. Carroll reached on a fielder’s choice on a ball hit to the shortstop, Madisyn Kennedy, who committed an error on the throw to third. The bases were loaded.
