Bill Edwards Stadium, Hempstead, NY
The Atlanta Smoke held on to defeat the New York Rise 7-5 in the final match of a three-game series on Saturday night. The Smoke got off to a strong start, scoring seven runs in the first two innings, leading 7-1 at one point.
The Rise didn't go out quietly, however. In the bottom half of the third, they began a rally, scoring three runs and loading the bases. The Storm were able to get out of the jam, and from there, both team's pitchers settled down and didn't give up a run for the final four innings.
The Smoke took two out of three in the series. The two teams will meet again next weekend for another series, this time in Atlanta.
