Weekly Tournament I - Round 2!

Special thanks to Crede24 for the FlightNL/Bombers game recap.


FlightAL puts down Lynx

FlightAL left EWade with little to say. In an old fashion beatdown FlightAL won 18-1. After the game, EWade simply put it "FlightAL > Lynx". FlightAL saw great hitting and great pitching on their way to victory.

Final Score: FlightAL wins 18-1.


NL Offense Takes Flight

The Bombers came into the semi-finals knowing FlightNL scored 25 runs in the opening round, and their bats certainly responded, scoring 12 total runs in the semi's. However, the FlightNL offense outmatched them, putting up 21 runs against the Bombers, totaling 46 runs in two nights.

The game started quick for the Bombers, as they scored two runs in the top of the 1st, including BigJudd hitting a first pitch homer against starter SmokeOut. FlightNL responded in the bottom of the inning with dcurt25 and ST3WART hitting solo shots to tie the game at 2-2.

FlightNL blew it wide open in the 2nd inning. With 2 outs in the bottom of the 2nd, they scored 9 runs which included a bases loaded grand slam by ST3WART. 2-11 FlightNL. Bombers starter SlayerXX put up a good effort before being relieved by veteran pitcher Ipwn.

The Bombers, carried by gimmepie and Roguee, would come back to score 7 more runs including a grand slam against starter SmokeOut and an additional 3 off of reliever ElDuque. Unfortunately for the Bombers, they could not keep pace with the FlightNL offense. Explosive nights by ST3WART and dcurt25 carried the team, with each hitting 3 home runs, including ST3WART's afermentioned grand slam. Pitchers also supported themselves as well, with SmokeOut, Ipwn, and ElDuque all hitting solo shots.

Final Score: FlightNL wins 21-12.

FlightNL will meet their sister team FlightAL in the Championship game of this weekly tournament.
