WW Development League game called due to excessive thunder


The first game of the season for the Tuesday night WWDL league game was called 2/3 the way through the top of the first. The umpires try to call the game early after leadoff hitter Byron smoked a ball to short. The umpires had to be informed that what they heard was not thunder but, was in fact the sound that is typically made when Byron makes contact with a softball. A fly to center from a prospect picked up prior to the game was followed by a screaming single from Slurry Joe that moved B over to second. A deep fly to left from Buckshot moved Byron to third. Mike Long hit a P rod to left center to score B and move JW to 2nd. The game was then called due to thunder. The silver lining in Tuesday's game is that the WWDL players had a chance to test their endurance prior to this Friday's game and the Saturday EOS Tournament.
