Game Summary
Too much Gloucester..... We didn't play bad at all. We had one error for the game, but they just HIT the day lights out of the ball. The difference in Monday and Thursday was night and day for their hitting. We hit the ball well but again we left too many runners on base. We left the bases loaded in the 4th and 5th innings. If we could get a timely hit with the bases loaded we could compete a little better. Keep fighting we'll get this right by the time conference play starts!!!
