The Diamondbacks faced the Mighty Mets for the 2nd time and played well. We almost pulled off the upset, but we came up short and were narrowly defeated 5-4.

First Inning

Nick boomed a double and Brad singled, but the D-Backs didn’t score in the top of the first.

On the field, Nick grabbed one on the mound and Emma scooped one at 2nd, each tossing to Adam at first for two nice outs.

Second Inning

Dylan D singled, but the batters continued to be chilly early.

The Mets would score twice, but Nick (at pitcher mound) threw a beauty to Seb at third for the final out of the inning.

Third Inning

Two balls were hit hard, but right into the shortstop’s glove during the third.

Despite 3 strikeouts, the Mets would score 2 more in the bottom of the inning.

Fourth Inning

The bats came alive, as Team Purple scored 3 runs. Singles were hit by Nick, Adam, Emma (a great smash into left), Ryan, and Seb. Dylan D’s fielder’s choice brought in an RBI.

Brad took the mound and proved to be wonderful at pitcher! Not only did keep them scoreless, but he had two great stabs and tossed over to Nick at first for 2 outs!

Fifth Inning

The Diamondbacks would scratch out another run on hits by Nick, Dylan V, and Adam.

Nick pitched the fifth, but the inning was highlighted by a crawling Dylan D who tried so hard to get an out at third!

Game Notes

Dylan V did a great job today, getting a sweet hit in the 5th, as well as a nice stop in right center on a bounce.  Thirdbasemen Seb and Dylan D also played well and Brad was impressive at pitcher.
