It Ain't Over

Raging Storm's much hyped semi-final series against RobArts Rage was full of unscripted drama, but not because of fireworks on the field.  These fireworks were in the sky.

Before the raging storm, we managed to finish game one.  We were down early and clawed our way back before giving it up again.  Two 8-run innings did us in and we lost 18-15.  By the end of this disappointing loss, the rain was falling and it was falling hard.

It felt like more of a typhoon than a rainfall.  The rain was blowing down sideways and felt like hail and the sky was full of lightning.  The ump called a rain delay but ordered us to stay at the park.  We were going to wait this out.

We anxiously waited soaked and cold and the rain eventually did subside allowing us to play game two.  We owned game two.  Leading wire to wire, we weren't about to end this season.  We won 9-3 to tie the series at one but at a park where the lights automatically turn off at 11pm, there was no time for game three.  Game three would have to wait.

It all comes down to this.  One game to decide who faces the S&M Flyers in the finals with an opportunity to move up to the comp division.  We don't have a date yet, but we know our destiny.  We have to finish this.
