Boxscore | Game story

Ahhh, yes. Hello. I shall be with you in a moment.

Did you know that -- in physics -- the term "moment" can refer to many different concepts.

For example. Moment of force is the tendency of a force to twist or rotate an object. This is an important, basic concept in engineering and physics. Meanwhile, The Principle of moments is a theorem concerning moments or force...Oh, but you are not here to listen to me ramble on and on about something that I remember from my Sixth Year...

I am just finishing my preliminary examination of the game. It was seem that there were several blows with a blunt object very early in the attack...

Beloit Top 1st

* Aaron Hicks singles on a line drive to center fielder D' Vontrey Richardson.
* Brian Dozier singles on a bunt ground ball to pitcher Maverick Lasker. Aaron Hicks to 2nd.
* Steven Liddle doubles (4) on a line drive to left fielder Khristopher Davis. Aaron Hicks scores. Brian Dozier scores.
* Angel Morales hit by pitch.
* With Michael Gonzales batting, wild pitch by Maverick Lasker, Steven Liddle to 3rd. Angel Morales to 2nd.
* Michael Gonzales called out on strikes.
* Daniel Rams strikes out swinging.
* Reggie Williams singles on a fly ball to right fielder Franklin Romero. Steven Liddle scores. Angel Morales scores

Then, there were a series of punishing blows inflicted by a right-handed man...who is -- perhaps -- of Australian origin.

Have you ever been to Australia, my boy? Oh, it is a wonderful place. A former penal colony that has developed into a place with the culture of the Sydney Opera House and the violence of Australian Rules Football. I must warn you to not turn over an empty glass and place it on the bar. I found out the hard way about this particular custom. You see....I must apologize...back to the examination.

There was an attempt to fight back, but it was almost as if Wisconsin was smothered. Because after this...

Wisconsin Bottom 2nd

* Sean Halton doubles (3) on a line drive to right fielder Aaron Hicks.
* Michael Marseco out on a sacrifice bunt, third baseman Brian Dozier to first baseman Michael Gonzales. Sean Halton to 3rd.
* Carlos George grounds out to pitcher Liam Hendriks. Sean Halton scores.
* Franklin Romero strikes out swinging.

...they did not have a baserunner until the sixth or a run until the seventh.

Do not worry though. I feel that this was a one-time thing. There is another game just past noon on the morrow. And there is always the chance that someone else will be on the table Saturday.

Of course, Saturday. The only day of the week in the English language with a root other than Norse mythology. Saturday...or...Saturn's Day...Saturn, a major Roman god of agriculture and harvest. In medieval times he was known as the Roman god of agriculture, justice and strength.

Until tomorrow, then.
