Following a solid showing in the Greeley/Windsor May Daze tournament, the Tigers were back in Longmont Baseball League play Monda Night against the Longmont Wildcats.

The Wildcats came in at 3-2 in LBL play, the Tigers at 1-3.

Longmont entered the game with cold bats – and quickly warmed them up notching 4 hits, including the first Home Run of the season, to tally 5 runs in the top of the first.

The Wildcats responded, grabbing 2 runs with a single and a triple, to set the score at 5-2 Tigers after one.

The second inning was quick and quiet as both teams went down in order 1-2-3.

The third inning saw the Tigers’ bats again catch fire with four hits.  A single, triple and another Home Run tallied four more runs.  With one run by the Wildcats in the top half – the Tigers now owned a 9-3 lead.

In the fourth, the Tigers added three more, again with good hitting.  No runs for the Wildcats and two more by the Tigers in the fifth put this one out of reach.

The game ended in a 14-3 victory for the Tigers!

Next up for the Tigers – back into Tournament action at the  Mother’s Day Tournament this coming weekend in Lakewood, Colorado.   As always, check our calendar for schedule details, and come out and support the Tigers!
