 The Eagles opened the scoring with a walk to Danielle Burgrabe,
followed by an RBI single by Brooklyn Hermes. Then Hermes scored on an
RBI single by Jazzminn Morecraft. Kalyn Roberts followed by getting on base on a passed ball
strikeout, and Alexis Van Hook was hit by a pitch to load the
bases. Mya Roberts drew an RBI walk, Sydney Johnson followed with an
RBI single, and finally an RBI walk to Katie Hunsley completed the
scoring. A line drive by Kylee Foster was snagged by a defensive gem and
was the third out with the bases full of Eagles. Mount Pulaski scored
a lone run in the first inning on three singles.
 The second inning
began with a single by Gracie Hemenway, who was driven in on an RBI
double by Burgrabe. Hermes walked and Morecraft singled again,
scoring Burgrabe. A walk to Kalyn Roberts and an RBI walk to Van
Hook followed. Heather Curry drove in the final run of the Eagles'
second with a single. The score then stood at 9-1. Mount Pulaski again
produced a single run in the second, on a walk and two hits.
 The
Burgrabe third began with successive walks to Johnson and Hunsley.
Foster and Grace Skelton each garnered RBIs by hitting to the right
side of the infield and allowing teammates to score. The Mount Pulaski
third resulted in their final run, on a walk and two singles. In
the fourth inning, Hemenway singled, Burgrabe worked a walk and
Hermes followed with an RBI single. Successive RBI singles by Kalyn
Roberts and Van Hook, a single by Curry, and an RBI single by Mya
Roberts resulted in the Eagles tallying four more runs. In the
bottom half of the fourth, the Eagles held Mount Pulaski scoreless and
the contest ended. [to

Pitching and good defense were the strong suit
of the Eagles. Skelton (1-0) got the win in dominating fashion on
four
strikeouts while allowing only four hits. Curry received her first save
of the season by striking out one, allowing just one hit and
inducing three groundouts in the final frame from the only batters
she faced that inning. Mount Pulaski never had a ball leave the
infield against either Eagle pitcher.
Severe weather forced the postponement of game two of the doubleheader,
and rescheduling has not occurred.
Burgrabe's Eagles are now 6-0 on the season in the Lincoln Park
District league.
