With right fielder Morgwais Teshurr leading the charge, the Lothlorien Lumberjacks defeated the visiting Minas Morgul Slayers, 8-7, in Game 2 of the Hobbit Series today. Teshurr was 2 for 2 with a double and 2 walks. He scored 3 runs at Celebrant Field to help Lothlorien force a 1-1 tie in the best-of-3 series.
Merry Gamwich aided the Lothlorien cause in the bottom of the fifth. With the bases loaded, the 27-year-old catcher hit a grand slam home run.
“We’re one game closer to our goal,” Lothlorien manager Borthak Throatslobber said later. “It isn’t any more complicated than that.”
The next game is set to be played for Sunday, October 11th , 2048 at Sylvan Cove.
