The 5th-place New York Boulders and the 3rd-place Sussex County Miners went at it in a three-game weekend series at Skylands Stadium in Augusta, NJ. The Boulders took the first game on Friday, 4-2, but lost the second game on Saturday in 10 innings, 8-7. The Boulders were down three-nothing in the third on Sunday with Max Smith on third and David Vinsky on first. Boulders shortstop Austin Dennis was at bat with a full count looking to tie the game with one mighty swing…
And that was Bret Leuthner on the Miners’ radio network. The final score, the Boulders lose, 7-5, dropping two of three on this road trip. There are just 12 games to go and the third playoff spot is still up for grabs. The Boulders are off tonight but start a three-game road series against the 7th-place New Jersey Jackals on Tuesday.
