11 of the 13 Panther runs in game one came in the first three innings, including a 6-run third.
Hutchinson scored the first four runs of game two. The Panthers answered with four runs in the second inning, then went on to lead 7-5 with two runs in the fourth. But it was a 9-run sixth inning that ended things early.
