ANOTHER TOUGH NIGHT FOR THE COLONIALS

It was another very tough night for the Colonials last night falling to Dinwiddie 10-1 at Shepherd Stadium. There wasn't a whole lot of good things that came out of this game and there weren't to many bright spots. We only got 4 hits and our pitchers continue to walk to many people and when you only score 1 run your not going to win to many games. That's about all I am going to say about this game, the Colonials will visit Meadowbrook Tuesday night. The Thomas Dale Knights beat Matoaca last night 10-2, with the win TD is now tied for 1st place with Matoaca & Dinwiddie at 3-1 in the CD. The CH girls softball team beat Dinwiddie last night 5-0, they are now 2-2 in the CD and 6-3 overall. In the NHL playoffs the Rangers beat the Devils 2-1 last night and now lead the series 2-0 and the Capitals beat the Flyers 5-4 to take a 1-0 series lead. Kyle Busch won last night Busch race at Phoenix edging out Carl Edwards for the win, the Sprint Cup Series will race there tonight. Andrew has a Little League game tonight a Ironbridge Park at 7:30pm of field #4 weather permitting. My pain index has skyrocketed this morning because of numerous reasons but the main reason is a hit my head in the shower after last nights game, I dropped the soap and when I picked it up I struck my right temple on the soap holder. It looked like I had a mini golf ball stuck in my head, needless to say it hurt. MICKEY
