With our backs against the wall in Game 2, Big Stick game out ready to play and stormed out to take half 8-4. (On a personal note, I made sure to take a nap this afternoon and choked down a RockStar on the way to the fields.) Confident in the victory, we started the half with another break before the wheels came off and Roots began to rally.
What started off as a blow-out, quickly became the second dog-fight of the final series. Roots fought back to get on serve, though we were still on the plus side. At 15-14, we got a turn and worked it up to the endzone only to turn it over on a miscue mere yards from a victory. That sparked a Roots mini-run and they ran off the next two points putting the score at 16-15, hard to 17. I wish I could say I remembered the details, but with our backs against the wall, we were able to grind out two turns and two conversions to steal the game 17-16 and force a decisive game 3 tomorrow night.
