Game Two Recap

Another great game - most definitely showcasing the outstanding defense this team can play. I was happy to be out of the car after a five hour drive from Tahoe to make the game, and pleasantly rewarded with there already being two runs on the board in our first at-bat. Anyone interested in providing the color commentary for the first inning is welcome. Juan Carlos pitched an absolutely outstanding game for us - only 50 pitches for 14 outs after coming in for Dahlen in the second. He was backed by some fabulous fielding, particularly from MJ in the second, fifth and sixth innings; Jacob in the fourth, and his own great fielding play to first in the sixth for the second to last out of the game. Our hitting was solid, and my favorite offensive moment came in the 5th when Cal, on Aaron's double, nearly made it home on his full-tilt wheels despite a very adamant third base coach telling him to STAY on third. Post-game, we had a great all-family BBQ at the field. Any guesses from the pictures what game they chose to play after the coaches told them to 'settle down?'
