Caps loss to West Johnson not reflected in the score 5-0
Too many men left on base was the story of the night for the Capitals. The offense just couldn’t break through despite having multiple opportunities. Timely hits just eluded the Caps all night long.
The starting pitching got roughed up a little but the bullpen came in and combined for 3 innings of shutout ball. The Caps fall to 8-6 overall and 3-2 in the Conference.
The Caps have a few days off to right the ship before taking on crosstown rivals Sanderson Friday night 7:00pm at Optimist Park. The Caps will look to exact revenge against the Spartans as they were the team that knocked the Caps out of the State Playoffs in 09.
