Adelaide Bite - ABL - Australian Baseball League

[PhilH]

Both sides have had no issues getting guys on base
in the last few innings.

Getting them home another issue.

Sydney 2 out with men on 1st and 2nd

Could be over in one swing
OR another innings to go.

[Big Phil]

Adrian Burnside coming out of the game, veteran closer Tom Becker comes to the mound for the Bite...

[Darth Vader]

This would be a good time to call on someone of the quality of Jonathon Papelbon to close out huh?

[PhilH]

Loaded bases again !!!

[PhilH]

2 balls, 1 strike .... a walk and we lose

[PhilH]

STRUCK HIM OUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[Big Phil]

YES, well done Tom Becker, he almost walked the winning run through coming back from a 0-3 call count...

Now into 11 innings, gotta bat well now Bite, c'mon...

[PhilH]

Hey Phil ... at least we dont have to worry about the lights curfew this week.

That said I wonder what time their flight is?

Its a long way from Blacktown to the airport

I'm listening to it on the net via Sydney radio station TripleH FM's web cast, as below link...

Was having issues with the video stream so listening in instead...

They are impressive broadcasters as well, sent them an email which they read out over the air which was cool...

[Big Phil]

Stefan Welsh caught right on the fence to go 3 up 3 down...

Sydney now have a chance to win it with their at bat in the bottom of the 11th

Sydney - 4

Adelaide - 4

[PhilH]

A lot of good sounding hits being held up in what is a very strong wind.

The behind pitcher black mesh sightscreen is off its hinges and blowing horizontal straight at home plate.

Bite all out ... down to bottom of 11th.

[Big Phil]

Sydney have a runner on 1st, none out...

[Big Phil]

Sydney advance the runner to 2nd with a sacrifice bunt, now Adelaide walking a danger batter with 1 out...

[PhilH]

For the 3rd straight innings ... PHEWWWWW ... this time a double play.

[PhilH]

End of 11

Adelaide Bite -- 4
Sydney Blue Sox - 4

[Big Phil]

Lead off batter Jamie McOwen gets to 1st base on a slow play from Sydney...

Quincy Latimore in the box now, looking to bunt and sacrifice the out to advance the runner to 2nd...

C'mon Bite, this could be the opening we need...

Thanks Phil's. This is fantastic commentary by you two. Sitting on the edge of my seat and I can't even see or hear the game.
