Game: Cary Academy at Kerr-Vance Academy
Date: 4/8/08

The Chargers just didn’t get off the bus for part of the game today. Although they scored 2 runs in the 2nd inning, they could not get runners on base. In the field, they made a few mental errors, but they were still able to hold the Spartans to only 1 run through the first 5 inning. At the plate, the Chargers were not able to receive a call in their favor. The Spartans gained the lead in the 6th inning with a shot over the right fielder’s head, bringing in 3 runs. The Chargers were not ready to give up that easily, tying the game with 2 more runs. The Spartans scoring the winning run off of a sacrifice fly to right field.
