In game two, the Falls committed seven errors and fell to Park Rapids, 13-7.
“Our defense struggled that game,” said Fusion 18U head coach Dieter Humbert. “(Seven runs) should have been enough for a victory, if we had played our normal defense.”
Marissa Kerry pitched all seven innings for the Falls and recorded the loss, allowing 13 runs, one earned, on 10 hits with five walks while striking out eight.
Serina Sprecco led the Fusion 18U at the plate with a pair of doubles and 3 RBI. Janet Humbert and Lexi Graves added two hits apiece with each player recording a double.
The Falls’ season record dropped to 6-10 going into Thursday’s season finale, a home doubleheader against Dryden.
