THAT WAS ONE UGLY WIN FOR THE BOYS, BUT A WIN IS A WIN.
AGAIN ERRORS, ERRORS, AND MORE ERORR. LETS SEE SOME COMBINED NUMBERS FROM LAST NIGHT.

18----TOTAL RUNS SCORED
20----HITS
10----ERRORS

BAD STARTING PITCHING FROM BOTH SIDES. TERRIBLE DEFENSE FROM BOTH SIDES.
AGAIN, OUR BULLPEN SHINED SHUTTING THE OUTLAWS DOWN THE STRETCH. HOWEVER, B.TACKER COULD NOT FIND THA STRIKE ZONE TO SAVE HIS LIFE.
LOOKED TO ME, AND I'M NO PITCHING EPERT, BUT HE WAS OVERTHROWING AND HIS MECHANICS LOOKED WAY OFF LAST NIGHT. HE PITCHED 24 PITCHES WITH ONLY 3 OF THEM BEING IN THE STRIKE ZONE. AGIAN, I AM NO EXPERT, BUT I DO KNOW THIS MUCH.. HE WAS TOTALY OFF LAST NIGHT. THAT MAKES 3 OUT OF HIS LAST 4 APPEARANCES THAT HE HAS STRUGGLED. BUELLER WAS AND CONTINUES TO BE LIGHTS OUT. R.JONES LOOKED SHARP FOR 2 INNINGS BEFORE GETTING INTO TROUBLE IN HIS 3RD INNING OF WORK.
LETS SEE IF THE BOYS CAN TAKE THE SERIES TONIGHT AND LIMIT THE AMT OF ERRORS. SEE YOU AT THE YARD.
