Post-Game Update:

Good evening, Caniacs....

Man, what an incredible ending to tonight's game...final was 6-5 to even the weekend series at 1-1.

But there's nothing more I can say other than to re-post the bottom of the 9th with U below...

We led 3-3...GT tied it up 3-3...they took the lad 4-3 before Dyland Cloonan mashed an HR to deep CF to tie the game 4-4....but then, in the 8th, the Bees retook the lead 5-4...

Just know this...Freddy Zamora was at the plate with one on...the count was 3-2 so we are down to our last pitch and looking at going o-2 vs GT and losing the series at home....

Here's our last chance...read and enjoy!!!!

Bottom 9


Okay, Caniacs...we are down to our last 3 outs...we had the same score last night and we came thisclose to winning it...let's see if we can finish with the series on the line...

Batters 9-1-2 up for the good guys...we have only 3 hits since the 5th...

Tuero PH for Moore...0-1...up the middle but their SS was right behind 2nd for the out...

1 down with the top of our order...

Cloonan...went yard over CF wall last time up to tie the game at the time....can he do it again? 1-0...2-0...way outside 3-0...down the middle takes it 3-1...swing and a miss on ball 4...3-2...low in the dirt he walks him...awful pitch...fortunately.

Tying run on 1st...winning run at the plate...1 out...


Lala...breaking ball 0-1...lines a screamer on the ground to their 1st baseman who fires to 2nd for the out...it was close...no play at 1st...

2 out now, Lala is on 1st...

Down to our last out...

Zamora...1 swing wins it, Caniacs...1-0...50th pitch: 1-1...throw to 1st...2-1 on a bad pitch...their C save Lala from going to 2nd...3-1...this could be the pitch if U are thinking FB...big cut on ball 4...it was a bad swing on high heat....3-2...well, we might be down to our last pitch..so here goes: .OMG...Freddy hits a moonshot to deep LF...will it be...can it be....might it be...YES, Caniacs...it's a LA BOMBA walk-off HR over the LF wall...what a clutch shot!

CANES WIN!!!!! CANES WIN!!!!! CANES WIN!!!! CANES WIN!!!! CANES WIN!!!!!

After last night's big disappointment.....Isn't payback hell????

Your final:

GT 5
UM 6

Line score
GT 5 11 1

Good evening, Caniacs!

We are a few minutes away from the first pitch of Game 2 between the host Hurricanes and the Yellowjackets of Georgia Tech. The Bees won Game 1 last night 5-4 in 10 innings.

It got pretty dramatic in the 10th with the score tied 4-4. GT's big bat slammed a go-ahead solo HR in the top of the inning to take a 50=-4 lead. In our half of the inning, we got 2 men on after 2 hits and with 2 outs, Raymond Gil, who already had a HR in the game, sent one to deep RF and for a moment, we thought we had a game winner but the ball carried just to the wall where the GT's HC's son slammed against the wall to make the game-ending catch.

The GT reliever...Hughes...was so fired up he took off his glove and slammed it to The Mark light turf. If I'm a Cane...that would fire me up for the rest of the series. It's not stepping on our logo but....
