The Expos might want to check the weather radar, because they just got absolutely leveled by a category-five offensive tempest. The Storm blew into town and unleashed a 29-hit barrage, cruising to a ridiculous 19-9 victory in a game that felt more like a slow-pitch home run derby than a tightly contested matchup.
The Storm just started hammering hits right out of the gate. They hung six-spots on the board in both the first and second innings, leaving the Expos' looking for a place to hide. By the time the dust settled on the second frame, it was already a 12-5 score.
While the Expos did their best to answer early, their offense eventually ran out of gas. Meanwhile, the Storm kept pouring it on. Sam acted as the primary lightning rod, driving in a whopping 5 RBIs with a massive and well timed home run. Not to be outdone, Brad (4-for-4) and Lance (3-for-3) treated the field like a batting cage, posting completely flawless afternoons. Duran and Mills also joined the party, launching absolute missiles of their own to clear the fences.
A desperate, three-run garbage-time rally by the Expos in the 7th was nothing but a light drizzle at the end of a catastrophic forecast.
Final score: Storm 19, Expos 9. Someone grab a mop.
