Donkeys 7, Mugs 5 (8 Innings)

A Bunch of Mugs and A Pitcher (4-2) dropped a disappointing 7 to 5 decision to the Donkeys Thursday night at Utz Field.  The extra inning loss abruptly ends what had been an impressive four game winning streak for the Mugs.

 

The Donkeys jumped on the board in the top of the first, put the blinders on, and never looked back, stubbornly hauling in runs to out pace the Mugs for the majority of the contest.  Fortunately for the Mugs, sure handed Jason Budden covered the field, pulling in more than his share to keep his struggling team in the game.  After horsing around most of the way, the Mugs finally managed to pin the tail on the Donkeys in the bottom of the seventh.  Behind by two, speedsters Jimmy Lien and Morgan Carter led off the inning with back to back base kicks, eventually feeling their way around the bases to knot the score.  But the Donkeys kicked back in the extra frame, ultimately leaving the Mugs on the ass end of a two run defeat.

 

Join the Mugs next week when they attempt to school 6th Grade Revenge.  Class will begin at 8:10 PM on Utz Field 3
