Surfing the Inner N8

Yesterday was the last day game (except for Sundays) for the Shorebirds, so I went.  Nice to have a job with flexibility–something I make sure not to take for granted!

It was truly a great game!  The guy who started on the mound for the Shorebirds, Cole McCurry, was 0-4 coming into the game and had an ERA somewhere around 5.00 or 6.00.  But he proceeded to strike out 10 batters, walk none, and throw a two-hit shutout over seven innings!  They brought in a closer to wrap up the last two innings as Delmarva trounced Greensboro 8-0.  The Shorebirds hit three early homers to take a nice lead, and Greensboro never threatened.

Here’s a shot of McCurry delivering his tenth strikeout:
