Here’s a fun boxscore to look over.
Lake Elsinore | 8 | 3 | 5 | 2 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 6 | 5 | 33 | 32 | 1 | |
High Desert | 1 | 2 | 0 | 3 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 4 | 18 | 26 | 5 |
Yesterday, High Desert had 8 players with a multi-hit game, four players with four rbis and 5 homeruns for the game… and they lost.
No, it was the Lake Elsinore Storm who defeated High Desert Mavericks 33-18 in a Class A California League matchup. Storm leadoff hitter Brad Chalk had 9 at-bats in the regulation nine inning game. Six Storm players had four or more hits. Matt Clark and Felix Carrasco combined for 11 rbis.
When the eighth inning started, the score was “only” 22-11. The Storm managed to put across eleven more and High Desert weren’t about to give up. However, their seven runs in the last two innings weren’t enough.
Looking at the scoreboard today… no score yet.
Bats must be tired.
