June 20, 2019 – Bethesda Big Train 8, Silver Spring-Takoma Park Thunderbolts 1 – Shirley Povich Field


 
Second row, behind the SS-T dugout about halfway down the first base line (general admission)
 
Game notes – Thunderbolts scored first in the top of the 3rd, which apparently woke up the home team, as they scored in each of the next 4 innings, culminating in a 4-run 6th … while the Big Train made some great defensive plays throughout, the visitors were somewhat sloppy, allowing two runs to score on wild pitches … Michael Bechtold (James Madison) pitched the first 5 innings for Bethesda … oddly enough, this was the closest of the 4 games so far this season between these two teams … the weather was nice for most of the evening, until a heavy shower as the 9th inning started sent just about everyone in the crowd towards the exit
 
Other – fundraiser for the Metropolitan Washington Ear (so I threw one of the four first pitches)
