Surprising line scores in three Tuesday-games
Nederlands

ROTTERDAM / BUSSUM / HAARLEM (Neth.) - On Tuesday-evening (September 19), three more make-up games were played, which all had some surprising line scores. Curaçao Neptunus, L&D Amsterdam Pirates and Onze Gezellen were the winning teams tonight.

Playing at home in Rotterdam, Neptunus trailed 8-0 (!) after six innings and was close to a mercy-rule loss against Hoofddorp Pioniers. However, after Pioniers changed its starting pitcher Dion Steijl the game started to turn around. Neptunus rallied for seven runs in the bottom of the seventh, then rallied for six runs in the eighth to eventually win with a 13-8 score.

Neptunus had recorded only five basehits in the first six innings, then added seven hits and 13 runs in the next two innings off of five pitchers.

Neptunus collected 12 basehits, including four by Gianison Boekhoudt and a 3-run homerun by Dwayne Kemp.

In Bussum, Amsterdam Pirates led 4-0 halfway the fourth inning and 7-3 halfway the eighth against HCAW. In the bottom of the eighth, HCAW rallied for four runs to come alongside, which led to extra innings. Amsterdam re-took the lead in the top of the tenth inning, scoring two runs on three wild pitches with two outs! Amsterdam won 9-8 and saw Nick Urbanus hit a 2-run homerun.

Starting on Thursday-evening, Amsterdam and Neptunus will meet in the final 3-game series in the Championship Pool. On the same evening, Pioniers and HCAW will begin their series.

In Haarlem, Onze Gezellen recorded an 11-1, mercy-rule victory in 7 innings against Storks, which last Sunday promoted to the big league. With this game, the Promotion/Relegation Pool was concluded.
