First Inning


The game began with both teams testing each other's defenses. The O's quickly took control, scoring 2 runs in their first inning. The Rayhawks struggled to find their rhythm early on, failing to register any hits or runs.


Middle Innings


As the innings progressed, Baltimore continued their offensive push. In the third inning, they added another run thanks to precise hitting and strategic base running. Meanwhile, Tampa Bay's bats remained quiet until Junior Caminero managed a hit in the fourth inning. However, this was not enough as they couldn't capitalize on opportunities with runners left on base.

Late Innings


By the sixth inning, Baltimore extended their lead by scoring two more runs off Tampa Bay's bullpen. Despite efforts from players like Chandler Simpson and Josh Lowe who tried to spark some momentum for the Rayhawks with hits in later innings, it was clear that what went wrong for Rays was an inability to convert chances into scores.


Final Whistle Reaction


As fans reflected on this game’s outcome and reviewed Rays post-match stats, it became evident that improvements are needed before facing future challenges. The pitching staff showed resilience but lacked support from an offense that could not break through against strong opposition pitching.
