Wow! What a game! This had to be one of the most exciting games I've seen. We jumped out to a substantial lead early on and it looked like smooth sailing, we we're hitting really well, cycling through the line-up and making some great plays. Once Junction City got warmed up, it was clear that we had a battle on our hands. They too started hitting well into the gap and we suffered a couple tough innings. With our heads up and emotions high, we evened out at 10-10 in the 6th, forcing an extra inning. It was a short at bat for the Irish with a quick 3 up 3 down. We took the field with the hopes of doing the same, but they managed to hit around us again. With guys on 2nd and 3rd our chances looked grim, but the boys kept their edge and played some of the best defensive ball I've seen them play. Batter grounds out to 2nd who narrowly throws him out at first, while the runner on third breaks for home only to be thrown out during a heroic slide. Nice! Sheldon survives to bat again. Another quick at bat with little damage to Junction City's momentum and we're back out on the field where the game finally comes to an end 12-11 Junction City.
On a side note, one of our catchers and star bunters Terrance was injured during the Colts game. Unbeknownst to the rest of us, he had been hit by a flying bat and suffered a shoulder injury that might keep him out for awhile. We wish you well Terrance.
