The team are down in Hattiesburg still to face the Ospreys while I come closer to being back on the field of play as my recovery steps up a little. I have been allowed to start some light aerobic movements with the shoulders and chest to test how the muscle feels before I go back onto the field to get ready for my return.

The Black Cats tweaked the line up again sending Eric Holleman down to the rookie league and bringing Gus Flores back up to our level.

The team for the game today looked like this

3B Angelo Mendoza
SS Casey McCauley
2B Steve Bielecki
DH Chris LaBuff
RF Cooper Houghton
CF Chris Severson
1B Chris Klika
LF Tanner Rice
Catcher Tomas Ayala

On the mound for us today was Antonio Torres. Torres has gone 1-3 before today and is not having a good time of it.

The game was a disaster for us as we went down 10-1. This wasn't helped by Torres being injured in the 3rd inning.

We managed 7 hits during the game but only 1 run.

We were 0-1 behind after the first as a double by Thorstad and a single by Pickens scored Thorstad.

3 of our hits came in the second but with the bases loaded we failed badly. Watts scored for the Ospreys to double the lead after he singled along with Lecain and Colombo.

The third saw Mendoza get a walk before he Stole second and moved to third on a Ground out by Bielecki. LaBuff then singled him home to cut the Ospreys lead. This didn't last as the Ospreys used 10 batters in the bottom of the third to score 6 runs and completely demoralise us.

The Ospreys scored again in the sixth and then in the eighth, Both Solo homers. To complete the slaughter 10-1.

The lads have another game against the Ospreys and I am fearful for how that could go. I really wish I was there to help them get through this.
