DURHAM, N.C. – In a pitcher's duel on Saturday afternoon, Duke softball fell short as Notre Dame scored one run in the sixth inning to win, 1-0, at the Duke Softball Stadium.
The loss puts the Blue Devils at 14-4 on the season and 0-2 in league play. The Fighting Irish take a 2-0 lead in the series, improving their overall season record to 12-5.
Junior Brianna Butler (4-2) hurled seven complete innings, letting up four hits, one walk and one run while picking up two strikeouts. Notre Dame's Peyton Tidd (4-1) held the Blue Devils to only two hits and garnered five K's.
Sophomore Deja Davis notched Duke's first hit of the game, doubling down the left field line for her third double of the series in the bottom of the third. Entering to pinch hit in the fifth inning, freshman Felise Collins grabbed the Blue Devils' second and final hit of the contest with a single to left.
Duke picked up two quick outs in the sixth inning, but Notre Dame used two hits to plate the winning run. The Fighting Irish's Leea Hanks singled up the middle and was brought home on an RBI double from Sarah Genz.
The Blue Devils look to avoid the sweep tomorrow as they play game three of the series with Notre Dame at 1 p.m.
