The Hickory Crawdads continued last night's shelling of the Savannah pitching staff by collecting a staggering 20 hits and 14 runs from the Sand Gnat hurlers tonight at L.P. Frans Stadium in Hickory, North Carolina. Every 'Dad in the starting lineup got at least one hit tonight. The best performances of the evening came from Tony Mansolino, with 3 for 4 and 3 RBIs and one homer (2 run), and Cameron Blair with 4 for 6, 5 RBIs and one homer (3 run). Cameron Blair collects my Big Leage Chew Player of the Game award tonight. This is his second time this week. He's on a roll :)
The 'Dads complete this series tomorrow night and hopefully collect a sweep. After tonight's play in the league, the 'Dads are 5 games behind Lakewood after Lakewood's loss in Asheville.
I spoke briefly to the 'Dad's media relations director, Dave Friedman, before the game tonight. I told him about the Big League Chew award. He suggested that I try to get Big League Chew to donate the gum to the cause. It's probably a long shot, but I'll give it a try. If they agree to donate the gum, I'll start that project next season with some different ideas...
