This was a 'good news, bad news' game for us.
Before the game, I gave you a goal of holding the Stingers to no more than 10 runs. The 'good news' is, you achieved that goal! They average 14 or 15 runs each game, so holding them to 10 is a great accomplishment.
The 'bad news' was that I didn't challenge you to score more runs than they did! It was still a beautiful day for a game and you still played well. We had 8 hits in the game, but that doesn't count all the times you hit the ball! There were so many times that you had great hits, but the Stingers players happened to be standing right where you hit it!
Abby had a great hit yesterday, which I was SURE was good enough for a double... except that I forgot how much the grass in the outfield would slow the ball down, so she was tagged out at second. That one was my fault.
Sophia, Nikki, Paige, Abby, and Taylor all had hits. Anna had three hits, three stolen bases, and a scored run.
Fielding was good as well; Katie, Jordan, and Paige each had assists for outs. Abby made two put-outs at first, Jordan had a tag out at second, and Jenna tagged out a runner between second & third, and made two plays at first for outs as well.
Good play all around, Sparks - let's keep it up!
