Storm started the playoffs with a bang. While Coulas was able to score three in the top of the first, Storm responded with five. Storm showed patience at the plate with Coulas’s pitcher (who was pitching only his third game of the year). Rene led off with a triple and Storm rolled through almost the entire batting order (they were shocked they had such a long batting order!).
The second went even better than the first as Coulas was held to a single run and Storm scored the max six. Sam walked off the inning with a grand slam. Storm managed to match their production again in the third by scoring another max 6. Rene hit his second triple of the game.
Storm scored five more in the fourth to take a commanding 22-4 lead. The game looked like it was going to be quite long as the first four innings took over an hour and there is no time limit in the playoffs. Storm had maxed out two of the innings and almost maxed out the other two, but it also seemed like they were maxed out as they only managed six more runs in the final two innings. Still, it was more than enough as they won 28-5.
