Stripes Battle Dukes for Split

The # 2 and #3 teams faced off last night at a hot and steamy Quincy Park. We knew the Dukes would be tough, they always are.

Game one started off with seems to have been a recent trend -- our opponents jumping out to a nice lead and our bats failing to get going. The Dukes jumped out early, but somehow you knew that the Stripes bats would come around. Maybe it took Al Petersen's injury to spark our team (Heal Up Al!), but our bats came alive and in the bottom of the last inning, down by two, we were able to score 4 and run out the clock for a good come-from-behind win. Final 10-8.


Game 2 started off strong for the Stripes, scoring 6 Runs in the top of the first. But we would score only 1 run the rest of the game, ending our 4 game winning streak. Final Score 15-7.

Hopefully updated standing will be posted by the Arlington soon. Stats later in the week.

Next Monday is our last regular season game against the first place Vox Sox. Please let me know if you'll be there. Email me at mattoon@gmaill.com
