Monday 4/26
The Braves played a much anticipated game against the Marlins. Braves looked good, played hard and did a wonderful job.
1st Inning - Braves scored 3 and held the Marlins to 1. In the 2nd inning we scored one more run and held the Marlins to only 1 additional. After the 3rd Inning the Braves were up by 2. The Marlins held the Braves to no runs in the top of the 4th and then retaliated with 5 runs of their own. We were all ready to play another inning but our 60 min ran out and the umpire thinking that we had played at lest 5 innings called the game.
Final Score Marlins 7 - Braves 5
The official did approach one of our coaches after the game and explained that he thought we had played 5 innings and he should have at least let us play one more inning. We will never know if that would have made a difference in the outcome but all we can do is forget about it, deal with it and move on. We will play the Marlins again and get our chance to shoe them who is really boss of the ball.
I would like to say that although we had several errors I think the boys did a super job last night. They didn't really let the loss get them down and they all said they had fun and that is truly the point of what we are doing here now anyway.
One last shout out to the families supply snacks - Thank you very much!
