As with most youg athletes, the hardest thing to do is play consistently. Game 6 started with a reminder that you can't hold onto the past. While many Pirates players were still reeling from the win over the Red Sox, we didn't realize that the game at hand must be played. The Pirates were flat from the beginning. After giving up 5 runs to the Dodgers in the first inning, the second inning followed as more of the same. In fact, we only recorded four outs in the game on defense. The Dodgers are a veteran team with agressive play and it was just too much for our young team. However, we learned a valuable lesson in that every game must be played with ferocity and the desire to win. The Pirates are a proud bunch and will no doubt bounce back from this dissapointing loss.
Fianl Score: Dodgers 13, Pirates 0
