Also on Thursday...

Thursday afternoon Anna had her regular ballet session, while Matthew’s Rockies had a game at six. He had his most productive offensive game of the year. Down two-strikes in the count with a runner on third, Matthew fouled off a pitch before hitting a sharp grounder. The first-baseman made a nice stop, and barely beat Matthew to the bag for the out…but the runner was able to score from third.

Matthew notched another RBI in the next inning, when he walked with the bases loaded. He took second on a fielder’s choice and third on Stephen’s single, before scoring on Grace’s inside-the-park grand slam. In the fifth Matthew led off the inning with a walk and took second on a wild pitch. He scored from second on Grace’s single to right.

With Coach Tracy unable to make the game, the Rockies won in a route, easily besting the Pirates 17 – 6.
