Force Teams Advance to County 14U Final
The Force Blue Friday scored seven times in the first inning and went on to a 15-0 win over the Northern Berkshire Girls Softball League Klein Building and Remodeling squad.
At the other end of the complex, Friday, the Force Black scored five times in the top of the sixth to break open a three-run game and went on to a 12-6 win over Dalton in the league’s other semi-final.
The two Pittsfield-based squads will play for the league title at 5:45 on Monday.
Daisy Caron was dominant on the mound for the second-seeded Force Blue in its win over Northern Berkshire.
She struck out 11, including four of the last five hitters she faced, in the five-inning win.
Northern Berkshire got just one hit, from Chloe Cabana in the top of the fourth. She ended up advancing to third base, but Caron got a called third strike for the final out.
Offensively, she helped the Force cause with a two-run triple in the first inning.
Liana Steiner went 2-for-3 with an RBI double, and Julie LeBarron drove in a run with a single and reached base three times, scoring in all three of her plate appearances.
Northern Berkshire's Kendall Moran went three innings in the circle, allowing four earned runs.
