Game 44- Our pitchers elbows are apparently made of crepe paper as now Ray has to leave the game in the middle of his start after tweaking his elbow.

For the first time this year our defense actually came into play. Joey committed an error early but it didn't lead to any runs. Thus inspired, I booted a double play throw in the 8th that led to two runs and had another ball deflect off my glove in the 9th (it was ruled a hit) that led to an additional run.  With two outs and two on the tying run came to the plate. Cbug, who thought she was going to have the night off, came in and promptly gave up a long drive to centerfield. Werley got a great jump on the ball and ended the game with a diving over-the-shoulder catch, probably the defensive play of the year so far.

Notes: Dave probably should have had our first triple of the year, but he got caught up watching Ryno chug all the way around from first on his 7th inning double. Jenny almost hit her first homer of the year but missed the top of the wall by about a foot. She then got thrown out at home on Woodyard's double because apparently she's not very fast.  Ray had two sacrifice bunts that led directly to our first two runs. 8 of our 14 hits were doubles. 5-game winning streak. Fuzzy named NL pitcher of the week.
