A McCormick Field Game

Last night's Kannapolis Intimidators 13-12 win over the Asheville Tourists was the type of high scoring, close game that I have come to know and love at McCormick Field. Its much better if the Tourists win but it was still a real good game. The Tourists had three homeruns (Tom Murphy, Francisco Sosa 2) and scored 12 runs on 11 hits and 9 bases on balls. The Tourists were only 2 for 11 with runners in scoring position and left 9 on base. They left a lot of opportunities on the field. The game also featured Tourists manager Fred Ocasio getting ejected in the 8th inning. They have two more games with the Intimidators and then the Greenville Drive come in for three.
