First Inning


The game began with both teams struggling to find their rhythm offensively. The Tigers managed one hit in the first inning but couldn't capitalize on it, leaving runners stranded on base. Meanwhile, the South Siders were unable to get any hits off Detroit's starting pitcher.


Second Inning


As the second inning unfolded, both teams continued their defensive prowess. The Tigs added another hit but failed to convert it into runs. Chicago's lineup remained silent as well, unable to break through Detroit's pitching.


Third and Fourth Innings


The third and fourth innings saw a continuation of strong pitching from both sides. Neither team managed any hits during these frames as pitchers dominated play with precise control and strategic pitch placement.


Fifth Inning


In an uneventful fifth inning for scoring opportunities, each team recorded just one hit apiece without altering the scoreboard. Both defenses held firm under pressure from opposing batters.


Sixth Inning


The sixth inning proved pivotal for Detroit when they finally broke through Chicago's defense by scoring one run on two hits—a decisive moment that ultimately secured victory for them over their rivals at Rate Field.


Seventh Through Ninth Innings


Despite efforts by both squads throughout these final innings—Detroit adding another single hit—the score remained unchanged thanks largely due excellent performances from respective bullpens which kept offenses contained until endgame whistle blew signaling conclusion match-up between Motor City Kitties & South Siders alike!
