2012 Season Update – July 1

Grays lose to Big Train in scorcher

July 1, 2012 – The Bethesda Big Train spoiled the DC Grays’ return to Hoy Field after an absence of several days. In record-setting summer heat, the Big Train handed the Grays their second straight loss by a 6-4 score. The loss dropped the Grays to 10-12 in the Cal Ripken Collegiate Baseball League.

The Grays managed just six hits against a pair of hard-throwing Bethesda pitchers. RF John Beaubien (Seton Hall) kept up his hot hitting, going 2-4 to raise his average to .387–good enough for fifth place in the Ripken League batting race. For stats and the boxscore, click here.

On Monday the Grays travel to Towson to face the Baltimore Redbirds at Calvert Hall in their final game before a three-day Fourth of July break. Game time has been moved to 5:00pm, since Calvert Hall is still without power.
