The Montreal Grizzlies and the Maine Loggers completed one of the strangest games in not only Friendship League history, but in baseball history. Montreal scored 2 runs in the top of the first inning on a 2-run shot by Josh (don't call me JJ) Reddick, to spot Francisco Liriano to a 2-0 lead. Here's where it got interesting......Maine scored a run in the 4th inning without the aid of a hit -- 3 walks and a sac fly. Then in the sixth inning, Liriano walked 3 more, loading the bases with nobody out, and getting tired in the process. Manager Mike Walter removed him, and reliever Cam Bedrosian gave up a sac fly, but no more, and got out of the inning with the score tied 2-2. It was in the 7th inning that Walter texted Maine Manager Willnus and said "Crazy that we've given up 2 runs with no hits". Willnus texted back "I didn't even realize we still had no hits!". Bedrosian closed out Maine in the 7th with no hits, then Hector Rondon entered and he pitched two more innings of hitless ball. All tied at 2-2 going to the tenth! Maine with zero hits still! It was then that the Montreal staff finally came unglued, as Alex Colume entered and surrendered a lead-off double to Tony Pham, then a game winning single to pinch hitter Luke Voit. Maine wins 3-2. Montreal goes away with a memory of pitching nine hitless innings and losing. Maine only had the six walks in the game -- they just managed to get three in one inning, and three in another inning, and get the two sac flies. And then their only two hits came in a third inning. The other seven innings were all 1-2-3. That be some craziness there.
