Cologne

We came out flat in this game which I personally think was a good thing. it woke us up to see that we actually do have to take practice more seriously and that baseball isn't just a game that you can just show up and do well. also, because we came out flat, the game went faster as we didn't score that many runs like normal. Our pitcher for the first game showed up late and was severely drunk, yet threw surprisingly well (considering his circumstances) And we had some bad at bats during in the early part of the game that really set us back. the game was 1-1 until the 5 or 6th inning when we exploded for a bunch of run. We finished the game winning 9-3.

the second game we were on top of our stuff. We were ready with this one and it showed. We had a good pitching performance by our pitcher from the Dominican Republic and some really good, timely hits. We ended up smoking them this game by a score of 10-0 in 7 innings.

I had some bad at bats in the first game going 1-3 with a walk and a hit by pitch. My one hit however was right on target...when i say that I mean I hit a hard ground ball up the middle and it nailed the pitcher on his ankle. I guess i didn't hit it as hard as I thought because he was able to finish the inning, however we did score a bunch of runs that inning as a result. The second game was much better for me. i had really good at bats and took one deep. I hit a ball and actually though I just hit a fly ball. It ended up landing just in front of the fence for a double. We have the biggest field in our division so if i had hit that ball at any other ball park that we've played at, I would've had a homerun! that's luck for me. I finished this game going 2-3 with a walk and a hit by pitch as well. My one out this game was a hard hit line drive to right field.

Cy had a pretty good day as well. I am not sure what he finished off with on the second game but i know he was 2-4 in the first game with a couple of key RBI's. We have one game left in the regular season and then we head to the playoffs in august. Hopefully we can get something good going with practice and everything that'll rolls into the playoffs playing at our best.
