"Even though we weren't able to get a win tonight, it was great to get back out on the baseball field and play against someone with a different jersey,” commented Head Coach Kevin Pearson.  “These kids have been itching to get back to playing baseball and having some normalcy in their lives.  We definitely saw many things that we need to work on, but we also saw many quality plays that we can build upon as the season continues."
