4-4 OBI suffered two losses to 8-0 The Heights in week 4 of Season 5. Both were good games, yet OBI was not able to put on its best Split City shoes and ride off into the darkness that is Field 5's CF…
In Game 1, OBI battled back from an early 12-1 deficit on the back of an 8-run inning. We batted around, yet not one player had two hits in the inning. Jayse did reach base on a single and a walk, and both JohnB and Spillane doubled,,, outside of that was just a typical string of hits to push across the runs.
OBI then followed that up with 3 runs in the 4th inning and called it a game. The Heights raked across 9 runs in the final 2 innings for a 23-12 victory.
Game 2 was much more of a pitchers duel as OBI led 6-0 after 3 innings. The lead was not surrendered until the bottom of the 5th as The Heights scored 4 for the second inning in a row.
OBI scored one final run in the top of the 7th to close the gap. However, no Split City as we lost 7-10.
Remember to always get a replacement player for yourself when you miss. This keeps stress levels down and run production up. Be the Ball even when you are not being the Ball…
Stats will be posted some time this weekend. I will have time in between games at Worlds and only have a few categories to verify.
