Jill Powers hit a routine ground ball but hustled down the line and was
able to make it to second base on a throwing error. She then reached third on a
fielders choice and stole home on a past ball. That’s all Shannon Smith and the
Milford defense needed to beat a tough Franklin team 1-0. Smith had 14
strikeouts and threw another perfect game (2 in a row) and the Milford D made
the plays. The Franklin pitcher kept most Milford batters off balance, only
allowing 5 hits. Milford hitters: Shannon Smith (2 singles), Caroline Fairbanks
(single), Sam Bonvino (single), Allie Piergustavo (single), Rachel Levine
(single), Lizzie Stallone (single).
