The run held up, as Mitch McCarthy (Seminole State) earned his third win on the season, and move the Boom within one-half game of first place Sanford River Rats.

In game two, Centenary fell behind 3-0 before scoring two in the fourth because of a key error and one more in the fifth.

The worry I had earlier began to slowly dissipate as we headed onward to the next inning. It’s a shame that the worry was only gone for a total of 18 pitches before they had gotten three scores and were ahead of us. When we finally got inside the dugout for our turn to bat, we were pumped to get back ahead of them as fast as possible. We were able to get one run before we reached our three outs and were thrust back onto the field with a tying score. They took two runs from us again causing me to get worried again. They just went ahead of us by two points, and I felt that all was lost. We were finally able to get the last out and we headed inside to the dugout. We were only able to get one run back like last time and I felt that we would lose and then we would be unable to go to the World Series, which is something I had wanted to achieve for sometime. But we were struck out and we went back out onto the field.

The team was ready, we had been working extremely hard for the past seven months for this. We were all in great shape and very rested.
