Mesquite 5 7 2
Rockwall 3 8 3
Mesquite pitchers kept our hitters in check all night. Rockwall defense was flat while the Skeeter hitters were putting the ball through the infield and advancing runners.
Cody Fields pitched good - six K's in first 2 innings. Gave up some hits later but nothing big. Needed offensive support to spark the team.
We had chances - 2 out bases loaded in the 6th - didn't get the needed key hit.
tying run on in the 7th with big sticks up - Mesquite pitcher won the battle.
It'll be a better day tomorrow...
Mesquite played the game well. They are a mouthy bunch like teams I saw discussed on a thread a few weeks back. Whatever floats your boat I guess.
Their fans were loud, supportive of their team and sportsmanlike - a welcome group.
