OBI batted around in the 1st inning of both games scoring 7 in the top of the first of Game 1 and 6 to take a 6-4 lead after the fist in Game 2. The offense in game 1 went almost silent as second-place 7-3 Shock Therapy pulled to within one after 4 innings by a count of 9-8.
After we scored one in the top of the fifth, S.T. pushed across 7 too many and finished us off after a 2 spot in the top of the 6th for the 12-15 final tally.
Offensively, we had fun with the John leading the way in a 4-4 effort. Spillane and Joshnow each had three hits as Joshnow led the team with 4 RBIs again. He has fit in very nicely in the important bottom of the order role over the past few weeks.
Larry, Paul, and Clint each had a productive out with their Sac Flies. And other than a Joshnow double, the only other extra base hit was fillin Brent's Big Fly (should Michael stay on the sidelines???).
We were out homered in the contest 4-1. Good News, 2 of those HRs were Dead Ball Outs (whew).
Game 2 was another fun offensive performance. After scoring the 6 in the bottom of the first and taking a couple innings off from running (or jogging) the bases,,, OBI scored 4 runs to tie the game at 10 in the bottom of the fourth inning.
Larry, Joshnow, John, and Brent each singled and after a Juan rocket for an out through the pitchers box, Nuta and Clint each singled in a run with the latter tying the game. The final at bat was all about the right hops as Brent tripled, Juan singled him home, then with 2 down Clint Tripled in another run and Jakob followed with the final dagger,,, another single that scored the final run,,, time was up.
Defensively, the night was mostly about Clint,,, and when he caught the ball, he knew what to do with it. Which included an unassisted Double Play as the mobile third baseman tagged two runners out in the vicinity of second base. Hey Clint, give peace a chance...
