Game 10 Report—Entrup 18, Tap Outs 15

The Tap Outs' hopes of returning to the top of the Quincy Park District V heap took a serious hit with a sloppy loss at Upper Moorman on Thursday night.

The Tap Outs allowed Entrup to score seven runs in the top of the seventh to wipe out a 13-11 lead. The Tap Outs were denied a call on first base that would have been the third out of the inning when the Jim Joyce of D-V declared that Big John Studd had pulled his foot off of first base. The Tap Outs trailed 14-13 at the time of the play, meaning the two runs the team scored in the bottom half of the inning would have been sufficient enough for the win.

Tap Outs boss Kriss Kross made an interesting decision in the seventh when he told Donny to walk the bases loaded. Former QU football player Owen Gilliland then hit his second bomb of the game, this one a grand slam, to give Entrup all the cushion it would need.

Your diamond heroes also struggled in the field, missing several easy balls that could have made a difference. Nick the Quick had the catch of the night for his juggling act in center field to catch a pop fly to start the third inning.

It was the Tap Outs' first loss of the season with DOB in the lineup. Not that it mattered. He was a miserable 0 for 3, hitting in the last spot in the lineup.

The Tap Outs will play out the string over the next two weeks to finish the season.
