Titan's sweep double-header with Mercy & Walk-off!!! Beat the Kings 12-0 and Dirtbags 4-3. John Hay pitched the first game throwing a 6 hit shutout and striking out 10 beating the Kings 12-0. In the second game Zach Qualls pitched a complete 9 inning game beating the Dirtbags 4-3 while striking out 15 batters. The Titans offense collected 27 hits in the two games with Jeff Mathews collected three hits in the first game with two RBIs and Gabe Douglas collected three hits in th...e second game scoring the tying run with a leadoff triple in the bottom of the ninth inning of the walk off win when Brandon Pletsch singled him home. Brandon went to second on a bad throw then to third on a ground out. The Dirtbags then intentionally walked the next two batters bringing up Anthony Ramos who singled home Pletsch to win the game. Catching both those great pitching performances was John Carra who stepped up and did a great job and collected three hits and two RBI and earns player of the day

The Sin City Titans started out of the gate Sunday kind of slow vs The Shockers. With the game tied 2 -2 in the top of the 6^th inning Chris Gschwender lead the inning off with one of his two singles on the day but was forced out at second by Carlos Mazon. Then with two outs Carlos stole second and scored on a base hit by Brandon Fick who also had two hits on the day. Then in the top of the 7^th The Titans put the game away with 4 runs with base hits from John Hay, who reached base four times on the day in between pitching the complete game win and a hit from birthday boy John Carra who scored a rund and drove in a run,then a walk from Anthony Ramos who also had two hits and two RBI’s and Jeff Mathews who added two hits and RBI. Tom Pulcini capped the inning off with a two RBI single making it 7-2 Titans. Sin City added one more in the 8^th inning making the final score Titan’s 8  Shockers 2. John Hay Wins Player of the game with a complete game win giving up 2 runs on 6 hits and striking out 10 and getting 1 hit and 3 walks swinging the bat.

The Sin City Titans have not played with any kind of consistency this season mainly because of holidays and rain outs, and Sunday it seemed to really look that way.  The Titan’s hit the ball hard and Chris Gschwender looked great on the mound. But that’s just two thirds of what it takes to play and let alone win at this game, you have to field the ball and throw the ball too.  The Titan’s committed six errors vs a very good  Black Sox team who took advantage of every error. Chris Gschwender who’s great pitching performance was spoiled by the sloppy play also lead the team hitting going 3 for 4 with a double and RBI. Anthony Ramos went 2 for 4 with three RBI’s the only highlights for Sin City.  The Titan’s (2-2) now have double-headers coming up with the missed games, that’s the bad news. The good news is with the multi games it could give them the consistency they need to back on the right track.  

The Sin City Titan’s in their longest game in team history (11 innings) came back for a walk off win vs The Bravos on Sunday. Zach Qualls got his first start for the Titans and pitched a solid 7 innings, giving up one run on 4 hits and striking out seven. With Sin City leading 6 to 1 Brandon Pletsch took the mound and in all fairness hadn’t pitched for a while and was not Sharpe. Giving up 5 runs in 2/3 of inning of work making the score 6 to 6 until John Hay (1-0) came in and restored order. But The Titan’s would not let one inning ruin their day. John Hay gave the Titan’s a chance pitching 3 1/3 innings of scoreless relief until the bottom of the bottom of the  11^th inning when Zach Qualls who was now in Chris Gschwender’s spot in the lineup lead off with a walk then Jeff Mathews singled moving Qualls to second. Gabe Douglas then had a bunt single loading the bases with no one out. Anthony Ramos hit a ground ball to shortstop that forced Qualls out at the plate for the first out. Then CJ Najera who had struggled at the plate all day hit a fly ball deep to centerfield letting Jeff Mathews to tag up and score from third base giving the Titan’s the walk off win! Despite Brandon Pletsch rough pitching inning he did have a great day hitting going 3 for 5 with two doubles and two RBI’s.  John Carra also had a good day with the bat going 3 for 5 with two RBI’s himself. Jeff Mathews had a three hit day and scored the winning run. The Titan’s awarded Anthony Ramos who had two hits on the day but more importantly caught all 11 innings and as the entire team said “worked is butt off for us” Thanks to all the fans who came out Sunday, it is most appreciated….
