The Heights Sports Bar Holds Split City at bay

6-0 The Heights won two, ehh, fairly close games against 1-4-1 OBI this past Thursday. The score of both games made them seem closer than the feeling in the OBI dugout. However, on the good news side of the house,,, we did hit over .500 for the first time in 3 weeks of Season 3 play in D1... Yay!!!

Game 1 was a 9-12 loss that was strange as it felt a if we were waiting for the powder keg to explode allowing The Heights offense to come alive. That did happen in the bottom of the fourth inning as TH put up a 9 spot. 8 of the 9 OBI runs were scored in the 3rd and 5th innings.

In the 3rd, Brian singled and Larry followed with a Double. Handjob and Mando each pushed across a run with Singles, then with two outs, Juan hit a 3-run Big Fly. In the 5th, it was much the same as Mando tripled and scored on Jayse's single, which was followed by another Juan HR.

Game 2 was another low scoring affair as OBI trailed 2-8 going to the top of the 7th. After The Heights pushed across an additional 3 runs, we had 7 hits in the bottom half and pushed across 4 runs to finish off a 6-11 loss.

We hit more consistently, improving on our averages from weeks 1 & 2. Continuing the upward trend in good at bats should help us get back into the win column this week on Field 2 against The Boys 'R Back at 8&9 tonight...

We are missing Clint, Jayse, and JR this evening. Juan's trip was cancelled, thus he will be joining us tonight.

Remember to stay within yourself, focus on what we each do best in the field and at the plate,,, this will bring us consistent wins ,,, Even in D1 ...
