Jordan settled things down going 4 innings facing 18 batters with 50 strikes, 9 strikeouts, 6 hits, 1 walk and 2 earned runs.  Sean started the 6th with 10 strikes, 1 strikeout, 3 hits, 1 walk and 4 earned runs.<\/p>\n<p>Defensively we didn&#8217;t do much this evening.  Routine plays were missed and there was no movement by the players.  Sparta&#8217;s had some big hits, but our outfielders didn&#8217;t get under the ball to make the catches.  Reilly got a ground out tag in the second at 1st and a 1-3 combo with Jordan at pitcher in the fifth.  Ryan had an 8-4 play with Alex R in the third and Ian started a 8-4 tag at 2nd with Benji in the sixth.<\/p>\n<p>The Phantoms bats kept us close tonight tying the game at 7-7 in the bottom of the 4th.  But we couldn&#8217;t generate a 5 run inning to take us over the top.  Jordan and Ceasar both had doubles tonight.  We had singles from Ryan, Jordan, Benji, Sean, Jack and Ceasar.  Sparta&#8217;s out hit the Phantoms 14 to 12 and held us to 3 walks.<\/p>\n<p>The MVP of the game was Christian who had a nice game going 2 for 2 at bats with 1 walk.  He had a hard hit RBI double in the 1st and an RBI triple in the 3rd.  Christian closed us out with 8 strikes, 1 strikeout, 2 hits, 1 walk and 1 earned run.<\/p>\n<p>Our next game is Saturday, May 15th against Windermere at 5:00 pm on Lynndale Field 2.  See you there.
