Day 2 of the Icebreaker and the Black Ice came ready to play the Baseball Babes!
1st Inning: Black Ice was home team so took the field with Jayden making her 2010 pitching debut. She thew some great pitches, but the Babes managed to get in 4 runs in the top of the inning. In the bottom of the inning, Black Ice found their bats....with Megan, Emily and Kiesha all racking up singles and Lesley drawing a walk. All four scored. The score at the end of 1: tied.
2nd Inning: Karley was on the mound. She struck out two and Kiesha took care of the third out, tagging a runer at the plate trying to steal home on a passed ball. In the bottom of the inning, our batters didn't let up. Jaden and Stephanie came up with singles and Magena smashed a double. Karley, Jayden and Britt all drew walks. Carly had a nice hit but was put out at 1st (nice RBI, though). The score: 8-5 for Black Ice.
3rd inning: Brittany's turn to make her 2010 pitching debut. Britt threw some great pitches. The babes scored some runs, but the ump called "time" before the Black Ice took their bats. Since we were home team, the score reverted back to the score at the end of the prior inning. Disappointing....we wanted our last bats! Final score: 8-5 for Black Ice.
Well done team!! It looks like we're ready for the start of the season!
