Blue Ridge was sadly handed a loss on Tuesday, but Roper Pittman did his best to prevent it. Pittman turned in nothing short of a gem, striking out seven batters over 5.2 innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off six hits (and not a single walk).
Even though Pittman couldn't lead Blue Ridge over Pickens, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. Sadly, Pittman's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped Blue Ridge's 12-game streak of wins at home. With the streak broken, Pittman and Blue Ridge surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Thursday's match.
