On June 18, Split City started the evening off with a Lucky 13 by sending 18 to the plate who mostly took advantage of the 8 man defensive start for the Runnin' Fools. Withstanding an 11 run top of the 4th inning, Split City held on to take Game 1 18-13.
Matt collected a hit in the first inning for his only single of the game. It was not necessary for him to carry OBI on his back this game as the remaining 9 in the lineup stroked 28 hits in the 5 innings.
Highlights include Jakob's 4 for 4, Spillane's 2 Doubles and 3 RBIs, 3 hits each by Clint, John, Michael, Paul and Nuta. Nuta's 2 Doubles and Infield Triple impressively drove in 7 runs.
Split City went quiet for Game 2 by collecting only 9 hits and scoring 4 runs in the 6 inning game. Highlights were few and far between. As offensive OBI was in Game 1, opposites attracted and only John and Michael had 2 hits in the game. Michael's unexpected triple over the 3rd base bag was an interesting moment (still not happy I had to run out a sticking triple).
Defense remains a specialty of the OBI squad and kept us in Game 2 until the final inning when RFools pushed across 5 runs to earn the 11-4 final.
Next, Split City takes a week off...
