Game Summary
Erratic Fielding, Anemic Offense Bring Down Valley.
The first inning set the tone. The first two Warrior batters reached on infield errors. Valley stopped the bleeding after four runs with a nifty unassisted double play by by the second baseman. The second inning mirrored the first, concluding with another double play where the Vikings caught an aggressive runner. The next two innings, Valley stayed in the game and even added a third double play in the fourth. After a pitching change in the fifth, the defense wilted and the final two runs of the game scored.
Offensively, Valley had no answers aside from a final push in the bottom of the fifth inning where they left runners on second and third base.
