WEEK THREE: Comets split with Colt .45s

GAME ONE:  As we welcomed back to old faces to the fold, Phil Motley was up to same old tricks once again. Guided by his longtime catcher Matt Gionta, Motley pitched his first complete game of the season for a 5-2 win. In seven innings he allowed four hits and two unearned runs. That is now 17 innings for Motley this season without allowing an earned run.
It was a Kyle Riley triple in the third inning tat gave the Comets a two-run lead they would never relinquish. Gavin White also had a pair of RBIs in the win.

GAME TWO: Matt Allen did his best to put the team on his back after starter Angelo Capria exited the game in the first inning with an injury. However other than a red hot Kyle Riley, who added two more hits to his team high total of 11, the veteran Colts right-hander Ian Downes got the best of the Comets lineup for a 14-0  win.
Carlos Perez ripped a single down the third base line in his first at-bat and Mike Bertha extended the game with a double down the first base line in the final inning. That was it for the offense.
