The Monkeys win again last night. In yet another close game the Monkeys were able to come from behind and win in the late innings. After giving up alternating three run innings (in the even numbered innings) they found themselves facing a 6-9 deficit heading into the bottom of the 6th inning. Clutch hitting, keen awareness of the strike zone, and good base running keyed the victory. The Mafia's pitchers could not find the strike zone in the late innings and many of the Monkeys made it on base via the free pass. The final score 10-9.
Nikki was back in action last night. She did not appear to be bothered by the neck injury as she played a great game getting hits in all of her at bats and making a couple of great catches in the outfield. Once again Kristen made a good play when making an awkward catch in foul territory at third. The umpire even commented on the great catch.
