West Allis NATIONALS Baseball

When the Nationals came out and scored 2 runs early on the McGuires Cats and Curt Pryal was coasting through 4 no hit innings, all looked good. With a man on 3rd and 1 out in the bottom of the 4th, Tom Donovan lined into a 3-5, inning ending double play. The Cats came out in the 5th and the momentum had swung in their favor. The Cats ended Pryals no-hit bid and actually took the lead 4-2 after the 6th. They would add another run to make it a final of 5-2. This marked the 1st time in a long time that the Nationals dropped a game to the Cats. Game 2 was a different story... With a drastic lineup shake the Nats actually found their offensive stride. Putting together a 4 run 1st inning helped starting pitcher Tim Spata out and would go on to handcuff the Cats over the course of the game. Phil Gnasinski came in to close out the game and the Nats prevailed 8-4 in game 2. Record: 6-8 (4-5) UP NEXT: Milwaukee Angels-Tuesday @ Harden 7:30
