Rockies keep rolling

Maria’s Rockies returned to action last night and recorded a thrilling 11-9 victory over the top-seeded Nationals at Lambert Park. Considering that the Nationals had beaten the Rockies 20-5 earlier in the season, the game provided an excellent gauge of the improvement of this team. The defense was solid all game long and there was enough timely hitting to bring home the victory. The win means that the Rockies went through their playoff pool with an undefeated 3-0 record. They will play their final game on Saturday at Perry Park; time and opponent are TBA.
