ENON LIONESS GAME SUMMARY FOR YEAR 2000

GAME 11 VS ENON LIONS
27 JUNE 2000

ENON LIONESS END UP TIED WITH THE ENON LIONS BY A SCORE OF 6-6.................
The Enon Lioness played the Enon Lions before a huge crowd on Tuesday night in a tense, nerve wracking late season game with 1st place on the line. A nervous Enon Lioness squad fell behind in the 1st inning 2-0 but quickly tied it up with 2 runs in the bottom of the inning. Neither team could score again until the top of the 5th inning when the Lions put 3 runs on the board, but the Lioness, displaying the same character and heart that they have shown all year, really made the game interesting by taking the lead with a 4 run bottom of the 5th inning. The Lions came back to tie it in the top of the 7th inning by scoring a run; however the Lioness almost won the game in the bottom of the 7th inning when Erin C. got to 3rd base with 2 outs but she was left stranded at 3rd base and the game was suspended. The tie will only be made up at the end of the season if it affects the standings. The tie leaves the Enon Lioness with a 9-1-1 record. Given the circumstances of the tie, almost everyone on the Enon Lioness roster celebrated at "Chuck e cheese" after the game. A good time was had by all.


Some of the game highlights were:
OFFENSE: Sarah D. and Stacie C. eac got on base 3 times and Stacie C. scored two runs. Erin C. and Hillary S. both got on base twice..

DEFENSE: The outfield play was outstanding! Megan J. and Amelia B. both made nice clutch grabs of fly balls to thwart rallies. Erin C. did an exceptional job handling the catching duties and Amy K. snared several comebacks on the mound.
PITCHING: Ignoring the huge crowd and the pressure from the stands, Amy K. and Hillary S. combined to shut down the Enon Lions team. Amy K. only gave up two unearned runs in the 1st inning and then threw shut out ball for the last 3 innings. Hillary S. finished out the last 3 innings in her finest performance of the year.
