An Amazing Game

Last night was the second in a four game series between the Cats and the Las Vegas 51s. Las Vegas tied it up in the top of the ninth and the Rivercats failed to score in the bottom of the ninth. So for the sixth time in the last thirteen games this one went into extra innings. The first game of the series on Friday had gone sixteen innings which the Cats won 2-1.

In the bottom of the tenth the Rivercats filled the bases on bunts - three in a row. I am not sure about the second one which was scored a "sacrifice" bunt although at the end of the play both players were safe. The fourth batter was Jeff Baisley and Las Vegas' pitcher walked him - advancing Derek Barton to win the game.
