Match 5: Slovenia vs Jersey

The rematch of the previous days final encounter for the day, and Slovenia were after it and fielded their best side. Jersey were slow to start and very noisy and lively Slovenia managed to limit them severely in the first few innings whilst running in 5. Jersey then started to strike back with a good innings to level the scores.

There were a number of incidents in the game involving injuries, including a spectacular clash running in a home run between Sean and their very brave female catcher. We have it on film and still wince every time we’ve watched it! Both were ok, although they were down on the ground for a few minutes. It was worth those 4 runs Sean – and will probably be an ‘action highlight’ in the tournament review video!

In the end though Jersey found their form and started to take charge to repeat yesterday’s victory and get another game under their belt.

Garry enjoyed playing the Slovenians...or were they playing with him?!

Final score: Slovenia 8 – 21 Jersey.
