After a shaky performance in game one of Fall Ball, the Greenville team looks to bounce back in game 2 tomorrow night at Ford Field 2. The first pitch is scheduled to be thrown at 9:30. Greenville opened a season 0 and 1 for the first time since the team formed back in June 2009.
"I am excited to see how our team handles adversity," Coach Brokaw remarked after team batting practice Sunday afternoon. "We have never been in this situation before, but I think out team will rise to the occasion. We are getting some key players back tomorrow night, so we have that going for us."
Coach Brokaw declined to answer any questions about whether hitting coach Dustin Swart's job was in Jeapordy. After the poor offensive output last week, it caused some to speculate that Coach Swart would be replaced, but so far there has been no announcement to suggest that.
Shane Spencer is set to be the starting pitcher tomorrow night for the 2nd time in as many games. There was some controversy in last weeks game as Spencer tried to throw pitches from different parts of the field. Apparantly, the umpires have ruled that you must pitch from the pitching rubber. Pitching coach Mike Mabry said they have been working on it this week and it shouldn't be a problem again.
Tomorrow night's opponent is a relative unknown Christ the Servant. Having not played last week Christ the Servant really has a pure and perfect record of no wins and no losses. After last week's performance, they are not expecting the crowd to be large, so there are plenty of great seats available. Please call the ticket office or come out to Ford field tomorrow night if you wish to see Greenville take on Christ the Servant.
