Extra Inning Dramatics pt.2

Holliday would finally come out of the game in after the eighth in what would be one of his best career outings, and Dustin Molleken would get the save opportunity. And, if you have been reading the blog constantly, you would know that one of the many problems that the Cats have this year is a not so good bullpen. And, well, one thing lead to another and the game was tied up. Miguel Abreu walked, Brandon Tripp doubled which scored Abreu, and Justin Johnson also doubled which plated Tripp. It looked as if all of Brian’s hard work had gone for not; but never count the Cats out. Kent Sakamoto stepped to the plate and killed a ball to deep center field. It would be his tenth home run of the year, and maybe one of his most important. Eric Krebs, who came in to finish off the ninth, pitched a decent tenth and received the win in this crazy affair. It was a game we should have won easily, that was almost taken away, but was recovered with some late inning heroics. And, as the old saying goes, there is no I in TEAM; everyone has to be on their game, because one part can destroy the rest.

Stat of the Night: Cats Outfielder Jared Keel had an awesome night going 3 for 5 and adding two stolen bases.
