Softball: Pine Forest Downed By Milton

February 20, 2013

The Pine Forest softball team couldn’t get its bats going Tuesday night in Milton as Panthers pitcher Hannah Brake fired a 12-strikeout, no-hitter in an 8-0 victory.

Brake allowed just two baserunners on a walk and an error. Down 2-0, Pine Forest (2-3, 1-1 in District 1-6A) did threaten in the fourth inning as Aleecia Ybarra led off by reaching on an error, then stole second. But Brake stranded Ybarra at second by striking out the next two batters and inducing a groundout to end the inning.

Pine Forest hasn’t scored in its past 11 innings since a first-inning run at Jay on Saturday in an 11-1 loss.

Sophomore pitcher Brooke Lauter gave up seven hits and seven walks but only three earned runs to take the loss.

The Eagles’ junior varsity suffered its second straight loss, 4-3, to the Panthers. Milton rallied from a 3-1 deficit in its final at-bat.

Pine Forest returns to action at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday night against visiting Gulf Breeze, followed by a District 1-6A home game against Navarre at 6:30 p.m. Friday.

    >>>Softball is nice, but when are we going to start getting more baseball results?

    Pine Forest does not submit baseball results. None of the area teams have been playing baseball…it keeps raining them out.

    Thank you Northescambia for covering the girls’ softball games. I can’t seem to hardly ever find it on PNJ.
