Bad News Beers

The Beers came out to Barcroft Park for an early series against Ragtag.  Starting pitcher, Mike Peterson, was late yet again, so left fielder Matt Rowley got the call to the mound.  Matt let up two runs in the first inning, but he was quickly helped out by the Beers offense, which scored seven runs in the bottom of the second. The Beers went on to score ten more runs in the game, taking game 1 by the score of 17 to 5.

In game 2, the Beers came out swinging once again.  Scoring 8 runs (7 reported), the Beers created quite a comfort zone and started to relax.  This caught up to the Beers in the 3rd inning. Up 13 to 2, the Beers gave up 7 runs in the bottom of the 3rd.  After a quick exchange between Beers’ catcher Jon Rojas, the umpire, and a Ragtag batter, the Beers turned the offense back on.  The outcome was a LONG 5th inning in which the Beers scored another 7 runs, to win the game 20-9 (21-9 unoffically). 

Update: League officials have decided to fine Beers’ pitcher, Mike Peterson, for every game in which he is late. More will be announced as the details of the fines are firmed up.
