Game Summary

  • Game #2 of Playoff Round Robin
  • The opponents played with 9 fielders (4 females) but played a male at catcher.
  • In the bottom of the 1st inning, the opponents would strike first, jumping out to a 2-0 lead.
  • The ManBearPigs tied it up with single runs in the top of the 2nd and 3rd innings before allowing 3 runs in the bottom of the 3rd inning to go back down 5-2.
  • The ManBearPigs battled back again, winning the 4th inning 1-0 and then a 3-run home run in the top of the 5th by #39 Brandon MacKay gave the ManBearPigs a slim 6-5 lead.
  • That lead was relinquished in the bottom half of the 5th inning and the opponents lead 7-6.
  •  "TSN Turning Point" - The ManBearPigs scored 12 runs in the top half of the 6th inning with the first 9 batters scoring before recording an out followed by a defensive shut out in the bottom half of the 6th inning.
  • Scoring 2 more runs in the top of the 7th inning, the ManBearPigs had a 13 run lead and only needed to hold the opponents to 1 run or less in the bottom half of the 7th inning for a mercy win.
  • The ManBearPigs allowed the opponents an 11 run bottom of the 7th inning to close the gap to 2 runs (20-18).
  • The ManBearPigs would hold off by winning the 8th and final inning 4-0 for a 24-18 final.
  • Many awesome plays were made in the game, save for the 7th inning, including an outfield that may have missed one ball all night if that.
  • Pitcher #5 Mike Frank made his first career playoff start and battled the base on balls all night but persevered to give his team a chance to win the game.
  • #11 Anne-Marie Lemelin's single run scored in the top of the 6th inning was her 100th career run scored.
  • It was an unexpected and stressful win for the ManBearPigs whom evened their record to 1-1 in the Round Robin and significantly improved their odds at a Semi-Final birth.
