Just a single shot from today’s game… Spanish Springs squeaked out a bottom of the seventh run to win 1-0 today against the Senators… kind of a frustrating day for me today shooting… not my favorite place to shoot, no good places to shoot from really… you’d think that would be different given that it’s the place where the Aces want to be “seen”…
