Overcoming a bravura effort from opposing starter Pippo McCrudden, the Carrock Bears slipped past the Numenor Kings by the score of 3-1 and got their first win in the 2051 Return of the King Series. McCrudden threw 6.0 innings of 3-hit ball for the Bears. The win narrows Carrock’s deficit to 2-1.
Justin Armortearer came through with a big-time hit for Carrock. The pinch hitter smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to give his team the lead, 3-1. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.
“I’m just looking to see the ball, hit the ball,” said Armortearer.
The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Thursday, November 2nd , 2051.
