At the health campus on Wednesday for the second of twelve rounds of chemo, they hooked up the pump at 1:30 which means it should come off at 11:30 on Friday morning. At the ballpark in the evening for game #2 of the most recent version of The War Of The Roses, on this night the game resembled "Home Run Derby", all we needed was the late Mark Scott from the vintage 1960 TV series to serve as emcee. The Revolution scored four times in the first on two-run home runs by Ryan Higgins and Chris Williams, the Stormers replied with five in the bottom half on Nick Ward's two-run homer and a three-run shot from Nick Lucky. Higgins' sac fly in the second tied the game 5-5 before a Mason Martin single restored the Stormers' one-run lead. In the visiting third Miles Simington went yard to tie the game at 6-up, Jeremy Arocho's sac fly in the fourth put the Revs ahead for good 7-6. Shayne Fontana's two-run in the seventh ended the scoring as the Revs took it 9-6. It was a bullpen game for both sides (neither starter made it out of the second inning), each team used six relievers with Nick Bennett earning the win and Max Green taking the loss. Had lunch with Jenny and her mother on Thursday with the chemo pouch in tow, later in the afternoon it began to rain. At the ballpark the game went on as scheduled but I elected to stay in, had it been just me I may have tried it but lugging the blue pouch around in lousy weather just didn't appeal to me. The Revs won the game to complete the sweep, the Stormers come back home on the 12th for the final homestand of the season. Take care, thanks for reading.
