Game 22 recap

Crows 16

Bounty Hunter 15

Game two of the doubleheader between the Crows (13-8) and the Bounty Hunters (6-15) started the same way as the first game of the tilt, with the Crows jumping out to a 12-5 lead early and it looked like "Class of" Jay Kelly (2-3 R RBI 2B) was going to sail to another complete game win. However, the usually reliable Crows defense came apart in the later innings and Americas team found themselves trailing by 2 runs in the bottom half of the last inning. With the bottom half of the order up the Crows needed a huge spark, and they got it from "Throwback" Jack Hoffman (3-3 3R RBI 2-2B) who hit a huge double scoring his brother Joe "Pipp" Hoffman. Then the greatest lead-off hitter in Crows history, Bernie "Sugar Bear" Knox (4-4 3R 4RBI 2B HR) came to plate and hit a solid single scoring "Throwback" Jack Hoffman and putting the tying run on first with Jason "Zog" Herzog(2-4 R RBI 2B) up in a clutch spot and he delivered a game winning double scoreing "Sugar Bear" giving the Crows the sweep they needed. Other offensive stars were Kyle "Duche" Christansen (2-3 R 2RBI HR) and Kevin "ESPY" Esprum (2-3 R RBI 2B) who had is consecutive hit streak snapped at 12.On a side note, Bobber down swept Stiff bats, giving the Crows sole possession of second place going into the playoffs.
