| Posted Jun 23/15 - Red Sox fight back to earn 7-4 win. |
| Red Sox get past a tough Pirates team 7-4. Going into this game we knew we would be facing some good pitching and in return need to pitch a good game ourselves. What we didn't expect was the strike zone to be the size of a cereal box. The matchup of pitchers was as expected minus a dozen or so walks that should have been called strikeouts. The tight strike zone was a big part in Jonah needing forty pitches to get through the first inning. Aside from the walks he pitched just fine, allowing only one hit and two runs in the first. Down two the sox hitters came to bat and quickly tied the game on two bases loaded walks issued to Erick and Isaiah. The sox missed a great chance to score a few more when they stranded the bases loaded. The second inning went by without much fight as Jonah struck out all three batters and the Pirates pitcher put down our side in order on three called third strikes. ( maybe that strike zone wasn't so small? ) Owen came on to pitch the next three frames and did a great job! He allowed two runs on only one hit. In the bottom of the third after the Pirates took the lead the Red Sox sticks got to work. Isaiah (Smalls) and Jonah got on base via the walk and and didn't stay on base long as Dalton ripped a shot to left for a tripple tying the game at four. After Lilly got a free pass and Owen drove a run in with a single, Erick put the ball in play and drove in Lilly. Diego would knock in the final run of the game with a grounder to first scoring Erick from third. That ended all the scoring for the game as Owen shut down the Pirates in the fourth and fifth and Lilly closed it out with a three up three down sixth. A very big win for our kids and it shows they know how to fight back when they are down.
Next up is the White Sox at 5:30 on Wednesday at Wilson 3.
