YORK, PA. - June 23, 2015 - The Pennsylvania Rebellion and USSSA Pride took their talents to Central Pennsylvania on Thursday, June 25 when they squared off at Santander Stadium for a neutral site contest. The Pride edged the Rebellion by a final score of 4-3 in a game that lasted 12 innings.

The Rebellion added a security run to their lead in the bottom of the fifth inning when Mandy Ogle notched a pinch-hit home run to left. The Pride were able to answer with two dingers of their own in their next at-bat, tying the game at 2-2. Home runs were credited to Brigette Del Ponte and Kelly Kretschman.
