Wow!!!!! That's about the only thing I can say to describe last night...It took 19 innings to finally solve the puzzle that has been Rockford pitching, but perhaps overlooked was how well the Beach Bums were throwing the past two nights as well...While Rockford scored three runs on Tuesday only one of the runs was earned meaning in 20 innings over two nights there has been a total of two earned runs...I was extremely interested in how Bob Koopmann managed last night for the RiverHawks...He treated the game as if it were Game Five of the Frontier League Championship Series by bringing in an outfielder to play in the infield during the 11th...Brett Bostelman was amazing for the Beach Bums, throwing 108 pitches in his 8+ innings of work...Garrett Bauer was equally impressive for Rockford, allowing just three hits while striking out nine...I said this on air, but games like last night are my absolute favorite...so much drama...every pitch has the game hanging on the line...back and forth chess matches between managers...Wow!!!!
There is some great stuff below...Check it out!! Also check out the front page of the Frontier League site which has a picture of Bostelman and the scroll bar at the top talks about the game last evening...
