Game 8
 

Home Up


 

May 13th, 2015              

    Things were looking bleak for the Reds tonight, as they definitely didn't bring their "A" game with them. Although the Reds wound up scoring a run in the first, it was countered by the Yankees in the second inning. Another run by the Reds made it 2-1, but the Yankees exploded for 4 runs in the bottom of the third to take a 5-2 lead. Based on how the game had gone so far, it looked like the Yankees were going to cruise to victory. Thankfully the Reds decided that they had enough of the errors that had plagued them so far, and their bats came to life as well. Three runs in the fourth and two more in the fifth, all while holding the Yankees to zero the rest of the game was enough to seal a 7-5 come from behind victory. Samantha got to the plate twice today, going 0-1 with a walk and a strikeout. She spent one inning playing centerfield before resuming her usual spot at second base for the next 4 innings.
