The first game of the double header was a classic pitchers dual between Brian Duke and Pilot Rock's Travis Copeland with PR pulling out the 1-0 victory on an unearned run. As low as the score was, defensively we were not sharp as we had 5 errors. Brian Duke battled in and out of trouble and the defense made the plays when needed (except for a 2nd inning lapse) Shane Bond got the lone hit for the TigerScots with a 5th inning double. The wind was absolutely horrible in the first game and both teams had trouble hitting.
The second game was another story. The Rockets won 14-0 on a 5 inning no hitter by Chance Norquist. Not much to say other than defensively and communication was horrible and very disappointing considering the magnitude of the games.
Grades:
Pitching: A, B-
Defense: C, D
Offense: F (got to battle when things are not going well.)
The measure of a man is not when things are going good, but when things are going bad. How will you respond?
