Offensive production continued to be no problem for the Deltaville Deltas last weekend, but a defensive lapse in the final inning of Sunday’s game doomed the Deltas to their first regular season league loss in two years. Deltaville defeated the Richmond El Heaters 2-2 on Saturday, but a 10-run onslaught by Richmond Team Woody in the final two innings propelled them past the Deltas in a 14-5 game on Sunday.
Deltaville stands at 6-1 in league play, and 7-2 overall. Deltaville, Team Woody, and the Richmond Smokies all sit atop the standings, each with one league loss.
The Deltas returned to play Wednesday night for a road game against the Richmond Brewers. On Friday night, the Deltas will host the Mechanicsville Hawks in a rematch of their only other loss of the season. On Saturday, Deltaville returns to league play, hosting the Richmond Avalanche. Both games begin at 7:30 p.m. at Deltaville.
