The Silver Platter and the Comeback Kids

Unlike many Thursday nights, OBI lost Game 1 and won Game 2 ... OBI handed Warning Track Power Game 1 on a Silver Platter taking a 4-21 loss. There were misplayed grounders, poor throws, and on & on ... Plus, offensively we were anything but offensive ... 'Nuff Said ...

Game 2 could have gone the same as the first game but grit and determination helped OBI persevere. In a 16-15 win, OBI came back from being down 8-2 and 15-7 to steal the win in the last at bat.

Down 7-15 heading into the top of the 5th, One Bad Inning scored 5 and 4 in the 5th and 6th innings respectively. This while putting up goose eggs for WTP in the bottom half of those innings.

The Home Run chase began to heat up as Matt joined the parade with a Han Solo shot to left field early in game 2... Some will tell you that this jump started the offense. Others will say, he did what? Awesome shot, Matt! 

Ok,,, let's throw out Game 1 and build on Game 2 for next week ... Stats follow,,, and please note that our #12 hitter Ryan is tops in Batting Average (.750) and On Base Pct (.778) ...
