Jayden's Mega Coney Island team played had their game that
was originally scheduled for Monday delayed due to rain, and tonight was the
night to make it up. Things started out slowly for Jay and her team, as they
found themselves down 5-0 going into the bottom of the second for their at-bats.
They did scratch across a run to narrow the score to 5-1 and then came out and
played good defense in the third, keeping the Winglemire team off the
scoreboard. They went out and scored two more runs to narrow the lead a little
more, now with the score at 5-3. Things were looking bleak in the fourth though,
as the Winglemire kids scored three times to push the lead to what seemed to be
an insurmountable 8-3 lead. Thankfully the Mega girls didn't give up and they
played hard in the final inning. They scratched together some key hits and found
themselves getting some runs. Before long the girls found themselves in a tie
ball game, knotting up the score at 8 runs apiece. Unfortunately there wasn't
time to play another inning, so the girls had to settle for their first tie of
the season. Even so, it was a great comeback at a clutch time for the girls!
