Coming into this matchup with a 2-4 record and hopes that this season would be a turnaround for the Ohio MLL team, there was a lot on the line against the Rattlers. Desperation can play a huge part in a team’s performance and I believe the Machine hit their point of desperation heading into this game. The Rattlers had control of the game until halfway through the second quarter. With…
