How It Happened
    Game 2 for today's action was a mirror opposite from game 1. The Barons bats were hot tallying 12 hits over the six inning game. Cook and Smaciarz were standout players going perfect at the plate, and Davis continues to be a get on base machine for the Barons. The exciting part of this win was the consistency at the plate. The runs weren't scored in bunches when the opposing pitcher was in a tight spot. The Barons consistently got on base and turned them into runs every inning. Additionally, the defense played an error free game and even in pinches, with bases loaded and zero outs, they kept focus and secured the shutout. 

At the Plate
-Cook was 3 for 3 at bat with 2 runs and an RBI
-Smaciarz was 3 for 3 at bat with 1 run and 2 RBI's
-Davis was 1 for 2 at bat with 2 runs
-Forster was 1 for 4 at bat with a run and 3 RBI's

In the Circle
-Starter Linden pitched 6.0 innings allowing 8 hits, 0 ERs, and grabbing 1 strikeout
