Vikings fall 4-3 to HF-L in a great ball game!

Mendon and HF-L met for the second time in a week today and played a great ball game. Both teams made many plays behind their starting pitchers.  Tim Oliver was on the hill for Mendon and pitched 5 strong innings. Andrew Bailey threw for HF-L and earned a complete game victory.  Mendon trailed 3-0 early, but chipped away at the lead and tied the game at 3 in the 6th. HF-L then perfectly executed a suicide squeeze in the bottom of the 6th to take a 1 run lead. The play at the plate was a bang, bang play that went in favor of the home Cougars.  Mendon was able to get the tying run to second base in the top of 7 but the game ended on another bang, bang play at 1st and HF-L had earned the win.  Mendon gets a day off tomorrow and then hosts West Irondequoit in our senior game Friday afternoon at 5:00. Mendon is now 10-5 on the season.
