29 May 2299 - BMU: Exciting Game Between Strongbacks and Behemoths, Marketman Delivers Clutch GS for OZi in Walk-Off Win
Well, that's how to end a game in style.
Outpost Zimonja right fielder Matt Marketman contributed to his team's 14-10 win over the Breakheart Banks Behemoths. Marketman, who leads the CA in total bases with 86, went 3 for 7 with 2 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the Strongbacks. With the win, the Strongbacks improved to 12-13.
The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 11th. With two out, Marketman hit a slider from Erik Wipf for a grand slam home run. The Strongbacks, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.
"We maximized our offense today," said Outpost Zimonja skipper David Troutman. "That makes everyone's life easier."
