High Desert

Lake Elsinore opened a three game series last night in High Desert, which is known for some high-scoring contests. Well, after eight innings last night Lake Elsinore was leading 28-14.Guess how many home runs Elsinore hit in order to score 28 runs... go ahead, guess. Exactly one. That's right - one homer, 28 runs. So how does a team score 28 runs with just one homer? 27 hits, 13 walks, and five High Desert errors. That is absolutely nuts. If you thought it wouldn't get crazier in the 9th inning, think again. How about this:Sawyer Carroll - Home RunJames Darnell - Home RunMatt Clark - Home RunFelix Carrasco - 6-3Danny Payne - Home RunSo, we score 28 runs with one homer over eight innings and then hit four homers in a span of five hitters.I think Jayson Stark would have a field day with this one.
