Pitching actually went pretty well for the most part. I may have used up my 1 Inside-the-park HR per calendar year.
Game 1: L 1-18
0-1, out on fouls
P
- Pitching: Good first inning but got a little out of sorts later; I believe I had more strikeouts than walks
- Fielding: I was probably a little over aggressive at times
Game 2: L 9-11
2-4
- grounded out twice
- balls hit to 2nd and pitcher and thrown out at 1st both times
- jammed thumb on an attempted tag out at 2nd before the 2nd at bat but somehow hit better as the game went along
- Inside-the-park HR (Normally good for 1 per calendar year [3 seasons])
- 2 RBI Double
- Opponent played with male infielders at 2nd, Short, and 3rd; Once we started pushing the ball to the outfield, we started to have better flow in the batting order.
- Rare occasion with me as #3 hitter in the order.
P
- Walked the first batter but settled down after that.
- Second game in a row with more strikeouts than walks.
- Fielding was better by me. At least from the standpoint of making sure I was in the right spot when the ball was hit into the outfield and securing the ball to get a force out at 1st on grounders.
- Jammed my thumb on attempted tag out at 2nd.
- After not getting a force out at 1st during the first game (we did have 1 for a runner advancing to 2nd), we had several force outs at 1st in this game.
