The C's gave away Game 2 with two base-running errors, a passed ball and an overthrow to spoil Elise Beguelin's last start for the blue and red. Beguelin tossed a three hitter and allowed three runs - only one earned - while striking out eight, but ended up with the loss. The C's took the lead in the fourth frame, as Simona Cellar had a RBI-double, but threw it away, as the Cards scored twice in the bottom of the inning, before adding an insurance run in the sixth.

The Challengers will miss the playoffs for the first time in team history after reaching the top four eight consecutive times. The C's will finish their season on September 1 with a double header against the SG Eagles/Challengers at Luzern.
