What an exciting game to watch the fans got every cent worth. Clutch 2 out RBI hits were the name of the game starting in the 1st when Darren Blakely drilled a single, In the 3rd Gonzo drilled a ball over the LF wall, The lookouts got a 2 out RBI single D'Angelo Jimenez (Yes the same D' Angelo), The lookouts added a 2 more in the 7th with 2 outs on a 2 run Double by Steve Smitherman to make it 5-3. The looks then tied the game on a 2 run 2 out single by Rick Asadoorian. The Barons in the 10th scored 2 runs all with 2 out the rally started with an Antoin Gray then Jerry Owens came in to Pinch Run and Pedro Lopez stroked an RBI triple to right then Chris Young stroked an RBI double his 27th off the season off the LF wall. Pollok got through a shaky 10th with the bases loaded got Jeff Bannon to hit into a 5-4-3 DP to end it. This game had 2 differnet Strike Zone's tonight as Ria Cortesio continues to hold a grudge against Razor Shines. Chattanooga pitchers got an extra couple inches on each corner while the Barons had to throw pitches almost down broadway to get a strike called. Several Baron's came close to getting tossed Chris Stewart after a 3-2 missed the plate outside or that is what she said Stewart took the ball slammed it against his shin guard and both Razor Shines and Bobby Jenks had heated discusions with the Ump

I see Danny Sandoval whooped on his old orginization. Homered off Smith to win the game for Scranton. Went 6-7 3 2B HR and 2 RBI in the DH

Tom... really appreciate these updates... especially when the Barons are out of town. I wish you worked for the Bham Post Herald!

The Post Herald is really bad on updates. I am glad we don't have the women umpire this series she tried real hard to hand the game to Chattanooga yesterday all of this over a incident in April.

There was a ball hit off the wall in RF, Ria called it a Homerun Razor Shines called her out and she has been holding a grudge ever since.

I was at the game that day. I didn't know Ria was still upset over that.

Yes she does it is very disapointing to know every game she has the plate that she will try her best to make Barons lose.
