The winning streak is now at two! The Catfish earned a split with the Savannah Sand Gnats (Nationals) by an 8-4 score.
Once again, the first run and the winning run (the 5th run tonight) were scored by Dan Batz, one of the players the wife and I are "sponsoring." Dan went 1-for-3 with a walk and 2 runs scored. His team-leading average is up to .295 for the season. Our other player, Lucas May, went 1-for-4 with a walk and scored a run.
Afterward, the whole team was was all smiles. Winning feels good. A winning streak feels really good.
Tomorrow is an off day. Dan's going golfing. Luke's has a guest in town. I'll be home at a decent hour. Thursday, it's the Hickory Crawdads (Pirates) in town for a four-game series.
The winning streak continues.
Nice batting helmet on that kid.

OUCH! That one hurts!
