Storm’s playoffs started well

Storm’s playoffs started well. The Inglorious batters were ingloriously shut out in the first two innings. Storm was able to put some runs up in each inning. Mills singled and Duran launched a two run homer immediately. Storm added another and was up 3-0 after 1. They put up 5 to stake a relatively strong 8-0 lead.

The Inglorious Batters started to hit ingloriously as a few singles squealed through off the ends of bats and they added a few timely hits to score five runs and load the bases with nobody out. It looked like it would be a mercy inning for sure, but a ground ball to short followed by a pop up to the catcher helped Storm to get out of the inning without giving up a max 5. 

The Inglorious Batters continued to chip away at Storm with one in the fourth and two in the top of the 5th to tie the game at 8. 

Storm remembered that it is important to hit and put up 3 in the bottom of the fifth to quickly regain their lead. They managed to play solid defense and keep the Inglorious Batters from having any big innings, and held kn to win 13-10.

Final Score: Storm 13 - Inglorious Batters 10
