Ana Gold (Ballston Spa/Duke) was dropped to 6th in the batting order Saturday as Carolina hosted Utah. The Blaze salvaged the final game of the series, 6-1, as Gold 1-3 with an RBI & a run scored. The Blaze are back in action tonight, traveling to Oklahoma City to play the Spark (7 pm, ESPN).
By the way, if you were watching the series vs. Utah, you'd notice the games were moved to the home field of minor league baseball's Durham Bulls. I think Duke had a previous commitment on their field over the weekend.
Viewers tuning in to WCWN, expecting to see the pre-show of NXT's Great American Bash, got screwed by the station Sunday night.
First, an episode of the syndicated World's Funniest aired at 6 pm. Then, an infomercial for Curtis Lumber followed at 6:30.
Now, why is this? The easy answer is that WCWN sold the air time for the infomercial days, maybe even weeks in advance, but didn't plan on one spot being last night at 6:30 pm. That the wrestling that followed was a hot card with one good match after another made up for the station's gaffe.
NXT's next "PLE" on CW is Heatwave on August 30.
The Tri-City ValleyCats took down Schaumburg, 7-2, Sunday. That was the good news. The bad was the attendance, just under 2000 fans after fireworks the night before. Dylan Broderick, Ian Walters, & Josh Leslie homered for Tri-City.
The 'Cats head north of the border to Ottawa to play the Titans starting tomorrow, before returning home to play Brockton in a 4 game series starting Friday. Bring your sunscreen, as temperatures are expected to be in the 90's.
