OBI Thwarts Midlife Crisis Comeback to Earn Split

6-4 OBI remains in 5th Place after a hard fought 15-13 victory in Game 2 over 7-3 Midlife Crisis (currently tied for 3rd place) was just the remedy for OBI's ills of late. Finding ourselves down 11-12 going to the 7th inning, the offense put up four runs with solid hitting and good base running to cap the night. And then the defense held up to secure the 2 run win.

The Game 2 win came after a second consecutive dismal offensive outing as we were run ruled 2-12 in Game 1. Even with the 2 runs on 4 hits in the first inning, OBI went two games (10 innings at the plate) by collecting 11 hits and scoring just the two runs... And guess what? We lost both games... Maybe this offense is the best defense is not just a conspiracy theory...

Game 2's offensive effort was exactly what the doctor ordered, especially after learning Spillane may be lost for a while. The ball was jumping off the bats of Matt, Jayse, Larry, and others. If only the new ASA Louisville Slugger would have been squared up,,, we would have seen Paul rocket one deep ...

Good news for the team... Larry and Michael have decided to play next Thursday,,, and will leave for Vegas and the 2013 LVSSA/SSUSA World Masters Championships ,,, AFTER the OBI games next Thursday, October 3rd, at 8:15/9:15 on Field #2 ...
