Da Bulls

An exciting first game for the baby Bulls today. Every opening day is a little rough since the boys are getting back into the swing of things and this was no exception. Both teams struggled at the plate and on the mound. Sam played catcher two innings and did a great job stopping balls in the dirt and denying any runners from stealing home. He also had a single and two walks. Dylan had a huge grounder stop at third and a perfect throw to Sam at first in the 4th inning to stop a rally as well as two walks and a strike out.

Sam took the mound in the top of the last inning and delivered a pretty solid first pitching performance ever for him. He struck out 2, walked 2 and tagged a runner trying to steal home to preserve a 7-7 tie. I think he solidified his closing spot in the rotation. The coaches son then delivered a two strike walk off home run to get a 8-7 win for the Bulls.

It was a pretty intense start to the 2013 campaign.
