What an exciting game between these two teams. A cliff hanger through 3 full innings. All teams in this division are worth seeing in action.

In the top of the first, the visiting Cardinals started were they left off last game with four solid singles from Garret Ganguet, Renato Mantilla, Joshua Gutierrez and Jordan Teach. Garret scored taking the lead to 1-0.

Scoring for the Cards were Garret, Jacob, Elias and Samuel to take the lead back to 5-1.

The Giants were shut down in the second with no hits or runs.

Nathan Stratton came in to pitch in the third and struck out three in a row. Great job Nathan.

The Giants rallied back in the third with seven hits of their own. Hitting for the Giants were Nathan Stratton (second hit), Isaac Taylor, Ethan Angella (second hit) Lauren Schmidt, Bryce Pamer, Daniel Scott (first hit of the season) and a game winning double off the bat of Joey Bursey. Joey had to leave the catchers position in the top of the third after being hit by a foul tip in the leg, but that didn't stop him from helping the team out in the bottom of the third. Scoring for the Giants were Nathan, Isaac, Ethan, Bryce and Daniel. The lead went back to the Giants for good 5-6.

Both these teams deserve a round of applause for their spirit and sportsmanship. You really need to go out and see all these teams play.
