A's even up series as the Storm stumbles in the 7th

In one of the closest and most tightly contested games of the season, Storm fell a little short losing to the A’s 16-12.

The game was close throughout its entirety. At the end of the 2nd, it was 6-5. At the end of the 5th, the A’s had taken a 10-5 lead, but in the top of the 6th Storm scored 7 to take a 12-10 lead. Unfortunately, Storm gave it right back in the bottom of the 6th letting the A’s take a 16-12 lead.

In the top of the 7th, Storm was down four, but had four home runs to use, so things looked promising; however, Storm was unable to score any runs, and lost for the second time this year.

Special Note:


An occurrence as rare as Halley’s comet appeared on Sunday. There was no Jo(e)y in Stormville, for mighty Pilkey STRUCK OUT! It was actually his eighth strikeout since Storm started recording these things in 2004. This means he strikes out once every 198 at bats. That’s not nearly as impressive as Bob’s one strikeout per 484 at bats, so it’ll be bigger news if Bob Ks.

HR's: Joey, Bob, Al, & Dave
