Maine Indians battled a team from Indiana Sunday at jet blue stadium. Red Sox spring training facility is an exact replica of fenway park, complete with the green monster.
A strong breeze blew in from left all game,so no balls were hit off the wall. Maine struck first in the bottom of the first when mike Ferraro singled,stole second, and scored on an RBI single by Rick Caruso..
Game was tied 2-2 until the 6th, until Maine starter Ed simmons tired, and Indiana ran off to a five run lead.Maine rallied to cut the deficit to 1 entering the 9th,behind run-scoring hits from Pete Geannelis and Jonny Martin.
Indiana then exploded for an 8 run ninth, to win 15-6...
Our sorrow was short-lived, as some of us found the Lani Kai tiki bar,with a gorgeous beach and equally impressive sunset!!
Back at it Monday morning,10 am against the Rangers, at the Twins complex...another 85 degree day on tap...Cowboy Murphy on the bump....
