Oklahoma City Spark News Release
The Oklahoma City Spark showcased the league's top offense on Friday night, scoring six runs on 10 hits to defeat the Portland Cascade, 6-1 at Hillsboro Ballpark.
After struggling with runners in scoring position in Thursday's series opener, the OKC jumped out to an early lead after a sacrifice fly from Sydney Romero and an RBI single by Sydney Sherrill in the first inning. Romero added a two-run homer in the second before Amanda Harper drove in another run with a double in the third.
Romero finished 2-for-3 with three RBI to record her fifth straight multi-hit game, while Maya Brady went 2-for-3 with a double and her fourth home run of the season, which tied her teammate Delanie Wisz for the the most long balls in the league.
The Cascade's lone run came on a sixth-inning solo homer from Megan Grant, marking her third blast of the season. Sis Bates extended her hitting streak to four games with a third-inning single.
Lyndsey Grein earned the first win of her professional career after tossing 2.2 scoreless innings in relief as the Spark improved to 4-4 on the season and snapped Portland's five-game winning streak.
The Spark will have an opportunity to secure the series win on Sunday when they face the Cascade at Hillsboro Ballpark at 9:30 a.m. local time. Tickets are available now.
