Storm worked some
two out magic against Greenthumb. In the 4th and 6th
innings, Storm scored five runs after two outs were recorded. In the fourth,
Storm was able to string together seven consecutive two-out hits, to bring in
five runs, and in the sixth, Storm put together four two-out hits including a
three-run homer by Lance. Those ten runs ended up being the difference in a
tight 20-15 win.
Game Highlights:
Al, Joey, and
Lance all hit very timely three-run home runs. Those three homers combined for
9 of Storm’s 20 runs. Lance’s definitive three run shot gave Storm the cushion
they needed heading into the bottom of the sixth.
Joey and Al were
both clutch throughout the night as they each hit 6 RBI.
The defense was
strong, and in the fourth inning, Storm was able to get out of a tough inning
with a line-drive double-play. At that moment, the bases were loaded, and had
the ball gone through, or had the double-play not been turned, Greenthumb could
have added more runs and pulled closer.
Not so highlights:
Todd seemed to be
doing something funny to the ball, and frequently Storm batters were unable to
square up the ball, including two strikeouts in the 2nd inning.
This game was the
perfect way to wrap-up the first half of the season. It was raining, which is
pretty much how the year has gone, and Storm played a good game on both sides
of the ball.
HR's: Joey (16), Lance (10), Al (6)
