Dampier Falcons down Sinners to advance to West Pilbara Softball Association grand final

Dampier Falcons are through to the grand final of the West Pilbara Softball Association after defeating Sinners 17-6. The preliminary final, which took place at Bulgarra Oval on Saturday, saw the Sinners take the lead in the first innings scoring one run while striking out the Falcons. The Dampier side rallied in the second, hitting two runners while dismissing the Sinners with ease to round out the frame. A base hit in the top of the third brought in a run for the Falcons while Sinners were shut out on the back of some strong fielding. The Falcons’ bats came alive in the back end of the final starting with a four-run fifth innings against the struggling Sinners. An eight-run sixth innings saw the game firmly in the grips of the Falcons with the Sinners changing pitchers twice during the frame. A further two runs in the final frame saw the Falcons pile on some more punishment to their opponents before completing another shut out pitching effort in the bottom frame. The West Pilbara Softball Association grand final will take place this Saturday when Falcons take on Storm at Bulgarra Oval.
