BOX Baseball - Game 79 vs. Oakland

Game 79- Sometimes you just keep swinging for the fences and it works. Other times you swing as hard as you can and screw yourself into the ground by missing. Luckily this interleague game against the A's was the former.

After Ray had a rough first inning where he gave up 2 runs, Ryno hit a solo shot in the second to cut the lead in half. Dave followed with a solo homer in the fourth to give the BOX a 4-3 lead, and Kaylor capped the scoring in the sixth with a 400-foot blast to right.

Ray gave up 9 hits in 5 innings, but with the help of some timely double plays only gave up 3 runs. The bullpen shut it down the rest of the way as J.C., Nick, and Cbug only allowed one baserunner over the last 4 innings.

Notes- Dave was named player of the game for his efforts... I watched Blade Runner while playing this game. I know it's supposed to be a SciFi classic, but I just don't get it. I mean, it was ok, but not outstanding.
