Playoff Games:
Game #1 - Rusty Rebels
Sept. 12th, 2017
Units lose 20-13
Coventry Park- I would chalk this loss up to two reasons; one the powerful, powerful offense of the Rebels (no weak spots in their batting order) and the second that the Units were a bit nervous. It also didn't help that we were missing Darren H. The Rebels got off to an early lead and didn't look back.

Units win 12-5
Over the last couple of seasons, the Master Batters seem to have the Hurtin' Units number during the regular season. But when it comes to the playoffs, the Units tighten up defensively and score those all important runs.
In this game, the Units defense was not as stellar as it had been, but the offense was firing on all cylinders and when the diamond dust settled the Units would have their first win in the playoffs.

Units lose 14-11
The Tap Masters were the Playoff champions and the Hurtin' Units actually gave them a closer game than the final game for the championship.
After 4 innings of play, the game was tied at 6-6. The Masters would score 8 more runs in the final 3 innings, the Units would only manage another 5 runs, in the end the end the Tap Masters would win.

Units win 13-10
The Hurtin' Units always seem to play the Dusty Cleats in the round robin, and it always seems to be an important game. The Units needed at least another win to go on to Sunday games or an elimination game.
Over the first 4 innings, the Cleats would out score the Units 8-4, but in the fifth inning, the Units would put up a 5 spot, taking the lead. The lead was short lived when the Cleats scored 2 runs in the bottom of the inning to regain the lead. The score after 5 innings was 10-9 for the Dusty Cleats. Over the next 2 innings, the Units would shut down the Cleats, no runs, the Units would also score another 4 runs for a 13-10 victory.
Unfortunately, the win would get the Units a bye into Sunday, the Units would have to play an elimination game.

Units win 12-10
The Hurtin' Units and the Beer Bros. had played in the round robin and the Units had lost by a score of 14-11. A close game that could have gone either way with a lucky bounce or hit in our favor.
This elimination was another close game, the Beer Bros. kept the Units off the score board over the first 3 innings, while scoring 3 runs for an early lead. The Units would finally get on the score board in the 4th inning with 2 runs, the Beer Bros. would also score another 2 runs. The score after 4 innings was 5-2 Beer Bros.
The Units would score another 3 runs in the fifth inning, but the Beer Bros. would counter with another 5 runs...crap!! The Units defense tightened up and did not allow the Beer Bros. another run in the game, the Units offense decided to show up and scored 7 runs over the final 2 innings. The Units would come back to defeat the Bros. by a score of 13-10 and play the Dogcatchers in the quarter finals on Sunday.

Units lose 11-10
The game against the Dogcatchers was another close game. The Dogcatchers would get off to an early lead in the first inning scoring 5 runs to the Units single run. The Dogcatchers would score another 4 runs in the 3 inning and the Units scored another single in the 2nd inning. The score after 3 innings was 9-2 for the Catchers.
The Units bats came to life in the fifth inning, scoring 3 runs. The Units would score runs in the final 4 innings, but in the end it would not be enough, the Dogcatchers would win 11-10. The Units season had come to an end.
The Dogcatchers would go on to the semi-finals and finals vs. the Tap Masters.
