We had 6 hits and struck out 9 times. They happened to get the timely hits. Got three RBI's on a two out, two strike pitch and two runs on one other pitch. Take one or both of those pitches back and they have 1 or 3 runs. We could have easily had 2 or 4 runs with one or two timely hits. We have had the games were we got the clutch hits. Just didn't happen last night.If ifs and buts were candies and nuts we'd all have a merry Christmas.
