    The Rays are on a tough streak lately, losing once again 
by a mercy score of 15-0. Sam played pretty well overall, fielding a grounder 
and throwing a runner out in the field, and almost getting a hit at the plate 
(it resulted in a force out at second base, ending the inning). Her other two 
at-bats resulted in a walk and a strikeout. Her team is slowly making progress, 
but you can still tell that they have a ways to go.
