CL Game 27
Dodgers (New Spring Capital) 17
Pirates (Provident Energy) 16
Pirates notes:
Dylan Bittle, Julia Eckels, Jimmy Bauwens and Matt Reebuck were a combined
15-for-15, including a Grand Slam by Jimmy Bauwens in the top of the 6th to give
the Pirates a 1 run lead going into the bottom of 6th.
Dodgers notes:
Michale Hussey hit a 2 run homer in bottom of 6th to win in it for
the Dodgers
The Dodgers and Pirates squared off in a battle of the final two unbeaten teams in the Continental League. The lead changed hands EIGHT times during a full 6 inning game. The Dodgers came to bat in the bottom of the 6th trailing by 1 run. Ryan Gill led off with a single and Mike Hussey stepped up and delivered a 2 run walk off home run to lead the Dodgers to a very hard fought victory!
Great game played by all!!!!
