Five Innings...

...played exceptionally well. Unfortunately we play six. And that sixth inning was a doozie.

So we played our 4th game of summer season tonight. Before the game our record was 1-2, but we could just as easily be 2-1 with a lucky break or a couple of strikes.

Played a team we match up pretty well against. And played 5 innings of baseball really well. At the end of 5 it was 3-1 them. Then we put in my hardest throwing pitcher for one. He's usually pretty reliable on the mound, can be a little wild. Nolan Ryan wild. Throws super hard, and will usually send one towards you during an at-bat. If he ever learns to use his wildness and throwing ability to his benefit, he's a machine. Anyway, he had a rough one and I pulled him. he had given up seven runs to about 9 batters, so i didn't think it was going to get better. End the inning down 11 runs. We score 2 in the bottom 6 to make it 12-3. Rough.

I'll leave you with this - "there's no crying in baseball".
