The Cats Come Back

On July 6 the Rivercats set a new record for the club - 9 straight losses.   All three were one run games.  Two  were extra inning games we lost by one run. They went into a four game series with Las Vegas, the second place team in the division.   And in a compact three day-four game series they went 4-4 (8-1,11-4, 11-7 and 7-5).   That gave us identical ten game records with Las Vegas (4-6) but put us 8 games up in the division going into the All Star break.

The All Star break will involve 30 players from the league - thirteen are chosen by players, managers and fans and the rest are chosen by the league office. The Cats on the team are Anthony Recker, Willie Eyre and Eric Sogard.  We get back into it on Thursday against the Grizzlies in Sacramento.  We've had a rough time against the bottom huggers this season, losing five of the last seven games.
