Well, first the good news... The Arizona road trip is over, and the Seals are heading home for games at RAP Tuesday through Thursday this week. What can be only be described as a disastrous road trip came to it's merciful end in Yuma Sunday night.
And that's the bad news... The Seals were once again unable to find the firepower needed to overcome an early deficit, falling 7-3 to the Scorpions for their 7th straight loss. In 110 degree heat, the Seals could only muster what seems to be their usual 8 hits, and committed 3 errors. Colin Moro continues to be a bright light, going 2 for 4 Sunday and ending the AZ trip 10 for 25, a tidy .400.
On the road trip, the Seals hit for a combined .249 average, with only a single home run in 7 games. They were 7 for 9 is steal attempts and continue to lead the league in swipes. Pitching took a bit of a beating, ending the week with a combined ERA of 8.941.
Lets hope the Seals can regain some of that early homestand magic this week. Game time is 7:00 each night as the visiting Calgary Vipers come to town.
