Gillman 22 Socastee 5

The Braves were never in the game as they surrendered 8 runs in the top of the first and trailed 20 to 2 after three innings.  It is very hard to find any positives from this performance but it is games like these that make winning so satisfying.  This absolute feeling of futility should hurt so bad that it should be the spark that feeds the flame and creates a burning desire to persevere and play winning baseball.  Anyone can play when the team is winning and things are going good, but the true measure of character is to play when everything is going against you.  This should only inspire you to work harder and when the day comes that you savor the victories, they will only be sweeter because you will know how hard you worked to make it so.  Go Braves!

Offensively, Walker Darnell was 3-3, (rbi) Kenny Taylor 2-3 (double, 2 rbi's) and Cobi Guilbeau, Manny Berdayes, Chase Cochran and Kyle Smith all had a hit a piece.
