Romero hit a win in the fifth inning, Nicole Rankle reached the second floor of the Sacrifice and advanced to 2-2 with a win over Susanna Brookshire, but the Canadians ended the game late that inning.

Janet Leung and Victoria Howard attacked the infield and got a base from Larissa Franklin. Kelsey Harshman decided on a flying fight.

Victoria Howard and Mexico Sidney Romero, who batted 3-2 for Canada, had two wins in three ad-bats.
