Costa Mesa’s Uyen Mai singled with one out in the seventh inning,

breaking up Northwood’s Allyson Lewis’ perfect game, but the Mustangs

couldn’t mount a late rally as Northwood won, 4-0, in a Pacific Coast

League game Tuesday at Northwood.

The win keeps Northwood (14-7, 7-0 in the PCL) in first place, while

the Mustangs fall to (15-8, 5-2 in the PCL).

Lewis had 12 strikeouts in the shutout and has 232 for the season.

Mai stole second and went to third on Anne Marie Topps single in the

seventh, but Mai was gunned down trying to score on a sacrifice fly that

ended the game.

Costa Mesa’s next game is Thursday against Estancia at TeWinkle Park

in Costa Mesa.
