DSBBC Victorious in Close Matches with Keystones

On Saturday, July 23 the Diamond State BBC hosted a pair of matches against the Keystone BBC of Harrisburg on a sweltering day at Fort DuPont in Delaware City.

The first match was a back-and-forth affair from the outset.  The Blue and Black jumped out to an early 4-1 advantage but then surrendered 4 tallies in the 5th inning and found themselves still trailing by a single ace as their entered their last turn at the striker’s line.  Doc started the inning of with a double and scored on a single by Steady to even the match at 5-5. Preacher advanced the runner to third and then Anchor singled to shortstop as Steady beat the throw home to seal the 6-5 victory.

The Diamond States started the second match off with a 3-tally first inning and then added single tallies in the 4th through 6th to take a 6-0 advantage.  Despite giving up a pair of tallies to the Harrisburg nine in their sixth inning, Preacher’s pitching kept the Keystones off-balance for the entire match as the Delaware side held on for the 6-2 victory.
