Luke H had an unassisted play at third for the second out
The third out when something like this...the ball was hit out to rightfield...Lukas gets it, throws to Kaden (shortstop) at second, then it's a pickle situation, so he throws back and forth with Luke H at third base and Kaden gets the runner out at second! Another great play to end the inning!
