Horrible traffic, injured players, gloomy skies, five errors by the infield, bad calls, general lollygagging and silent bats; one or more of these bad things caused the MBC 16's to play their worst game.
Poor Andrew Helean pitched his heart out scattering five hits and giving up just one earned run while his team lost 8-1. The evening started poorly and the game started slowly. The Rush pushed a run across in the second on a lead off double, a sacrifice bunt (blown, again by the MBC defense trying to prove once again that bunts are kryptonite) and a documented blown call by the field umpire. No kidding, he tried to end Coach Cougan's argument with these unwise words "Sorry Coach I blew the call, that's baseball". Coach Cougan's agreement with his blown call, but disagreement with his inability to change the call almost ended with Coach Cougan's exit, thank you Coach Pelley for your calming influence.
But that point became moot as MBC kicked (booted is another word for it) the door open for the Rush with two, two out errors in the fourth inning to plate four runs. To solidify the evening boots were displayed in the sixth inning to plate three more.
On the bright side, Robbie Dunbar and Adam Hinthorne managed to get hits and Adam even scored a run.
