Jake Hannam got the start for Galesburg and threw pretty well after a shaky first inning where he surrendered 3 runs to the Little Giants. Our offense responded by scoring a run without having a hit in the first inning. We remained hitless until the 6th inning when we had 4 consecutive hits to start the inning including an RBI double from Chans Sugden. Our bats again went cold as we popped the ball up in the infield 3 times and struck out looking to end the game. On the day, we struck out 12 times, several of them looking. We saw some decent pitching last night, but it wasn't as good as we saw last Thursday or will see tomorrow against Moline. We need to get better at putting the ball in play and forcing the defense to work.
I look forward to seeing most of you at the banquet tonight and at our final game of the season tomorrow at Moline.
