Storm and the Expos both had short benches. Storm went with nine and the Expos brought in Scotty from The Crew as a ringer. Scotty was stinging from The Crew’s recent loss to Storm and brought his best game, as did the Expos’ regular crew (pun intended), and Storm and the Expos traded blows throughout the game.
Sam’s bat kept bringing the thunder with another home run capping off a six run second for Storm as they took a 6-5 lead into the third. The Expos fought back scoring five in the third taking a 10-9 lead. They held a 12-10 lead after the fourth.
Storm bats exploded in the fifth including a grand slam from Duran as Storm scored 9 and took what looked to be a commanding 19-12 lead. The Crew chipped away and scored two runs tightening the game. Storm was blanked in the 6th and then the floodgates opened as The Crew matched Storm’s 9 run inning, and took a 23-19 lead. Storm was blanked again in the seventh. The Expos won 23-19.
Final Score: Expos 23 - Storm 19
