Summary: The Stallions dropped Tuesday’s game to the Amsterdam Mohawks 11-8, bringing the team’s record to 12-10 on the season. The Stallions led 3-2 heading into the bottom of the seventh, and then five runs from the Mohawks put Amsterdam ahead 7-3.

Key Players:
Travis Hobbensiefken (Stallions): Hobbensiefken was lights out for the Stallions on Tuesday, going 2-5, hitting two home runs and recording four RBI, and two runs. Having struggled in previous games over the past few weeks, Hobbensiefken performed in vintage form as fans saw a return in performance resembling the beginning of the season.
Pitching Notes
Virgil Heath (Stallions): Heath had the longest and most impressive performance on the mound tonight. He allowed only three hits, one earned run, with two strikeouts in four innings pitched.
Game Conclusion:

The Stallions nearly answered, but could not close the lead in time. They now move to 12-10 on the season and sit tied for third in the division.
