With the sun out and great baseball weather the Raider men went to work against Lane today. With an upsetting score of 3-4 with the Raider men taking a loss thy are hopeful going into game two today at 4pm at Mount Tahoma.
The first inning was pitched by Elliot Morris who hasn't been able to play because of a debilitating injury in his elbow, however after recovery he is able to start playing again Morris's pitch was clocked at 91mph. Look for more updates on this amazing player.
After the first inning Jake Phillips stepped up to pitch until the ninth inning, he made quick outs with his solid defense staff backing him up.
Until the ninth inning no runs were score by Lane and it was looking hopeful for the Raider men, however Lane then scored four runs, winning the game.
Much like yesterday the Raider men took several hits, two being taken by Des Santos. and one by Deven Kaaiwela.
Points were scored by Santos, DJ Gee, and d'Aundray Van Slyke.
Josh Potter, the Raider first baseman, hurt his ankle yesterday and is on the bench today, with Kyle Pegram taking over Potter's first base position.
Amazing plays between Pegram and catcher Josh Howard. As well as several great plays by Issac Kim in left field. Needless to say Santos also helped in getting many Lane runners out, and made some great catches.
Kudos to Pegram for several catches that made baseball look easy.
And as always there was tons of positive comments made by Phillips.
Join the Raider men for game two at 4pm at Mount Tahoma.
