Rockies Notes: No notesPelicans Notes: The Pelicans and Rockies needed extra innings to end this tight affair; the Pels took a 5-4 victory in 9.
MikeK survived a rocky (pun intended) 2 run first inning to hold the Rockies to just those 2 through 5. IanM came in to close it out, but the Rox hitters wouldn't be tamed, scoring individual runs in the 6th and 7th to tie it up.
This game was one of give and take the whole way. Both IanM (Pels) and DanielA (Rox) hit the wall in right for triples. Both MikeW (Rox) and BrandenS (Pels) made spectacular catches in CF to rob extra base hits.
Both teams bunted and stole with precision; both teams employed the IBB to good effect; both teams threw runners out at the plate. In the end, AlanB drew a tough walk with the bases loaded to force home the winning run.
Great game; good luck to both teams tomorrow. |
