Boston Dodgers 8, AlThomas Athletics 7
In another crazy game for the Dodgers, the As pull off a late game surge to force extras but the Dodgers squeak it out in 8.
Down 7-3 in the 6th, As come within 1 after a base-clearing monster double to right-center by Carrera, then tie the game on an HBP. Carrera: 2/3 w 2 dbls - 4 RBI.
The Dodgers answered with a small-ball run the result of an error, sac bunt and then a long sac fly by Jerrad "bat me cleanup" Ryan to score Ye Olde Grimes for the eventual winning run. 2 hit nights for the meat of the Dodger lineup, 2 RBI each for zDubin and "Hoser" Huber.
Play of the game: Jay Shatto, making a catch on a bomb fly by Lambert, later described as "4% ability, 96% insane luck." --just edging out the fabled eephus pitch by Quiet Dougie English, who later earned his first YBL win. |
