Team Summaries | Raptors Notes: I ran into Max at the grocery store today and he asked me why I don't do game recaps on Sportability. I said, 'I used to but I never thought anyone read them.' Max responded, 'I do.' Message received. . . . It was a great day of baseball on Sunday morning, made possible thanks to a big effort from our field crew. The Raptors started off a little slow in their first 9:30am game and quickly found themselves in a 5-0 hole against a very strong Lake Monsters team. Great pitching from Sam D and Max held the Monsters in check through the final three innings and allowed the Raptors to mount an incredible comeback. The Raptors found life when Marcus O scored the Raptors first run on an RBI single by Shaun M. They continued to chip away at the Lake Monsters lead thanks to some timely hitting, including a clutch 2-out RBI double from Will B. The defensive play of the game was made by Shaun who speared Ari's laser shot in CF for the Lake Monsters final out in the top of the 5th. Ultimately the strong Lake Monsters pitching trio (Bennett, Owen, Jonah) was too much to overcome and the comeback fell 1 run short. It was a great performance by both sides and left everyone looking forward to the rematch in a few weeks. Game ball goes to Shaun M for his great defense and aggressive bat. Shout outs to Sam D and Max R for great pitching performances and big hits. Lake Monsters Notes: |
