Softball rivalry highlights Pitman, Turlock pitchers
By definition, a pitchers' duel is a low-scoring affair with the starting pitchers on both sides allowing no more than a run or two.

If it weren't for some clever base-running and key hits by the Bulldogs, Thursday afternoon's showdown might still be taking place right now.
