Perez’s homer in the fifth inning prevented the Bruins from being victimized by the mercy rule. Nickles went three for three despite colliding with the outfield wall in the second inning and hitting the back of her head when she landed on the warning track. The collision came as Nickles raced into right-center trying to track down Jessie Warren’s deep fly ball, which glanced off Nickles’ glove and over the wall for a two-run homer.
