While the Skeeters where able to compile 11 hits in game 3, there were only able to put up 2 runs while leaving 9 runners on base to drop game 3 with a 7-2 score.

Game 4 of the series was not any better for Sugar Land. They were only able to get 6 hits and failed to get any runs on the board...again leaving 9 runners on base.
