2019 Playoff's Day 2, Offensive drought ends Storm’s season

After raining down runs against Greenthumb and Coulas on Saturday, Storm’s bats lost their thunder. Storm did not score in the first three innings, spotting the Falcons to a 9-0 lead. This should not have been insurmountable. Storm seemed to wake up in the 4th and scored five runs. Suddenly they were right back in the game. In the 6th, Brian led off with a triple. That’s right, a triple. This looked like a promising start. However, Brian must have used up all the gas in his tank, because two batters later he would be thrown out at home trying to score on a fly ball to right. Storm added a run in the 7th, but it wasn’t enough. Storm only scored in two out of seven innings. That’s not how you win in slo-pitch.

There were some good defensive plays. Craig made a fantastic running catch in the outfield, and Duran made a couple of nice catches in the outfield, and a really nice play running from second to make a grab in foul territory in short right field.

After winning the regular season for the 5th straight season, Storm fell short in the playoffs for the 2nd year in a row. There’s always next year.

Better Luck next year Storm. Congratulations Falcons!!
