LIVE at the Shorebirds Stadium

The Shorebirds started off the top of the 1st inning with a three up, three down against the Lexington Legends. In the bottom of the first the lead off hitter got a base hit but a double play ruined that. The Shorebirds also have a three up, three down inning.

Breaking News, some guy just proposed on top of the Shorebirds Dugout to a young lady and she said yes. Christian & Ingred.

Another three up, three down top of the inning and a three up, three down bottom of the second inning.

Flannery's has provided Shepard's Pie and Steamed Broccoli for the Press Box, Num, Num!

The Legends start off the third inning with a single but quickly get three outs to end the top of the third. The Shorebirds start off the bottom of the third inning with a single. Another base hit and there's a man on first and second, no outs. A sacrifice bunt advance a man to second and a man to third, one out. They walk the next batter, bases are loaded, one out. A pop up fly ball for an out still leaving a man on second and a man on third, 2 outs. Fly pop, three outs and the inning ends.

We start off the top of the fourth, three up, three down. Shorebirds get on base with one out. Wild pitch sends the man on first to second base. The batter strikes out and they end the inning once again without a score.

Lexington starts off the fifth inning with an out but the second batter barely plops a ball over the shortstops head and gets on base. Talk about a major error! The second baseman had a pop up fly, the man on first stood there knowing it was an easy catch for an out and he dropped the ball. The man on first started racing to second and the second baseman, (who had all the time in the world) kept bobbling the ball and the man on first actually made it to second without any problem whatsoever. That's a shame. OK, get this, the bases are now loaded for Lexington and there's only one out. A fly ball to center field for an out but the man on third scores and Lexington still has a man on first and second, 2 outs. The top of the fifth finally ends, thank God. The first Shorebirds batter strikes out. The second batter gets a base hit. They walk the next batter and we now have a man on first and second, one out. BASES LOADED LADIES & GENTLEMEN, one out! Pop up, two out, bases loaded. Anthony Martinez is up. Wild pitch and I do mean wild! ALL MEN ON BASE SCORE AND WE NOW HAVE A 3-1 BALL GAME! 2 outs. ANOTHER wild pitch and they now start warming up the bullpen. This inning is over and without a hit, three men score. Bitchin!

Three up, three down for Lexington and the Sorebirds in the sixth. It's obviously still 3-1 Shorebirds.

We start off the seventh inning and a batter get a base hit and then steals second. The second batter pops up to the right field and the man on second acts like he's going to run to third. The right fielder throws a perfect throw to the second baseman and they tag him out! The next batter is out and we end the top of the third. Great work Shorebirds! The first man strikes out but the next batter, Matt Tucker hits a beautiful triple and we may be looking at a Hardee's THICK BURGER! YES! Base hit and everyone in the Stadium now gets a THICK BURGER! The man on first steals second, two outs. The inning ends and the Shorebirds are up, 4-1!

There's still time to get out here tonight and see the FIREWORKS!

We start off the top of the eighth inning with a new pitcher, Brett Bordes. The first batter grounds out. The second batter gets hit with the ball and advances to first base. The third batter walks, one out, man on first and second. The fourth batter grounds out but base runners advance to second and third, two outs. The batter strikes out and we're out of the top of the 8th and the score is still 4-1. I don't care what anyone says, this is an exciting game. The first Shorebirds batter hit a deep fly ball to center field for an out. The second batter gets a base hit. Man on first, one out. The third batter gets hit with the ball, man on first and second. This Pitcher is outta here! Base hit, BASES LOADED, ONE OUT! BASE HIT, TWO MEN SCORE, 6-1, ONE OUT! There's a man on 1st & 3rd. We now have two outs. Three outs and we're not going to the top of the 9th.

One out, Two Outs, GAME OVER!
