Going in to tonight's game Drew and his Holly Grey teammates knew that they were in for a battle, as they faced off against the first place Holly Blue team. Unfortunately things went pretty much as expected. Holly Grey came out strong in the first, scoring three runs on the strength of strong base running (and an error) that resulted in a homerun, and a double for Drew that drove in two runs. The pitching struggled in the first, however, as they went on to give up 5 runs, mostly due to walks and misplays. The second inning wasn't as good for the Grey team, as they were kept off the bases with three quick outs. The Blue team scored two quick runs in their half of the inning, but a triple play (A TRIPLE PLAY!) by the Holly Grey team ended the inning in a heartbeat. Heading into the third down 7-3, the Grey team was determined to come back. They narrowed the gap with three runs of their own, but went on to give up three runs in the bottom of the inning, giving up what they had just earned. The fourth inning was a duplicate of the third score-wise, as the Blue team expanded their lead further. Going into the fifth inning, the Grey players knew this was going to be their final chance to make a game of it. They weren't able to do so, however, going down quietly to seal the 13-7 loss. One game remaining after today - let's make it a good one Grey!
