Top of the 9th, Wes Arrington takes over on the mound for the HOOS. Nunnallee to CF. Brown leads off for Dartmouth.

Neither Nunnallee nor Harris call each other off and end up colliding, the ball trickles well away from both and Brown ends up with an inside the park HR. 11-3 HOOS.

I think they’re all right, but all of our blue and orange unis are better imo

I just like the flag look inside the numbers on the back. Clean.

How do we feel about the orange blue pinstripes? I’m personally not a big fan.

Game two of the weekend. Chone James with his first career start at DH.

No PBP from me at least for the first hour with the basketball game going on, will try to give score updates.

We’re wearing the RWB hats again today. Just feels like we’re leaning into them a little too much for me lol

Game tied at 1 after 3 complete.

We got really unlucky last inning, had runners on the corners with no outs and Arroyo hit a line shot right at the 1st baseman who was holding the bag, so we got doubled up.

53

Valincius has 8 K’s through 4. Allowing some baserunners but working around it.

54

Hoos now up 6-1 after 4, Dartmouth melted down that half inning with some bad errors in the OF and we sent all nine hitters in our lineup to the plate.

55

7-1 HOOS after 5 complete.

1st year Chone James having a very nice first career start, has two hits and two RBI’s on the day so far.

Valincius’s day is done, final line: 5 IP, 7 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 9 K’s, 81 pitches and 56 for strikes.
