The Fleet’s second half got off on the wrong foot as they drop a 4-2 decision to Tucson to fall buck under .500, to 20-21, as their home woes continue. They still sit in second place in their division, with plenty of time to get back on track.
In an offense-dry affair, the Armada got dropped their third straight (and the series) to Tucson in a 4-2 loss in which they managed only 8 hits.
For his second consecutive start, Hideki Irabu looked sharp (striking out eight in seven innings of work) but picked up a loss in the decision, dropping his record to 4-2 on the year.
Hopefully they get their Blair jitters put aside and the offense rolling again, as their next three series are at home, beginning this Thursday. More info to come!
