Boys Softball

The boys had another battle with EAB today.  We only had 8 players but it was more then enough.  They boys started off the game scoring two runs in the first inning.,  EAB answered back with three runs in the bottom of the first.  BIS scored two more runs in the 2nd inning and held EAB to 0.  In the 4th inning BIS scored four more runs and led 8 to 3.  EAB answered back with some timely hitting and scored three runs of their own.  It stayed close until BIS went ahead 12 to 8 heading into the bottom of the 7th.  EAB came out swinging and scored 4 runs to tie the game and we went into extra innings.  In the top of the 8th BIS scored 2 runs and went ahead 14 to 12.  All they had to do is get three outs and they won the game.  EAB came out swinging and scored 3 runs so the final score was 15 to 14 in favor of EAB.  One of our players had to leave in the bottom of the 8th so we only had 7 players.  

It was a great game and the boys showed a lot of improvement.  Ben was the player of the game with 6 RBI's and a inside the park home run.  Gustavo and Jesse were the defensive players of the game.  Zeeshon did a great job pitching.  Letsie did a great job in the outfield and with his strong arm kept them from scoring more runs.  Alan had a great catch in the outfield as well. For only having 8 players and keeping the game close was a great accomplishment.  They did not have a practice since the last game so it was a great effort by all the players.  The next game will be Friday, March 22 so stay tuned for the latest sports news from BIS.
