This was another one of "those games" for the home team.
The kids had one really good inning while batting, going through the whole
order. The rest of the innings involved some short rallies and a lot of
strikeouts, as well as some good fielding by the other team. Samantha struck out
in her first at bat, but got a couple of base hits along with a nice pop fly
that was caught by one of the kids on the other team for an out. Against most
teams it would have been a hit. Sam also saw her fair share of action in the
field, and came very close to getting the runners out, but the throw always
seemed to be just a tad late or the ball was dropped by whomever she was
throwing to. The result of all of this action was a 17-10 loss.
