4-Spot in 8th Gives River Cities Game 2 Victory

Timothy Vallejo is not having a good Cecil Cup series. After taking the loss in Game 1, the fireman-turned-arsonist came into the game to protect a 4-2 lead and get the game to closer Samuel Contreras. Instead, he starts off by giving up a single to pinch-hitter Patrick Welch (just as he did in last night's game), followed up by a single to Anton Suarez. Then, after striking out Alan Callahan, he proceeded to give up two more singles in a row to Game 1 heroes Hukill and Valdes. Mark Deschamp came in and allowed one more runner to score before ending the inning.

  1. Think you used enough, um, dynamite there, Butch?

  2. Well, I have to admit that I didn't expect my bullpen to be the reason I lost the Cup this year. C'est la vie.

  3. It ain't over yet. You've still got the soft end of my rotation to go through.

  4. Unfortunately, that goes both ways.

    Besides, this is the Seattle Monarchs you're playing, remember?
