“Game On” for tonight with the Miners

After another rainout last night it makes you wonder if someone isn’t performing a rain dance to put a damper on the Railroaders season.  But the forecast for the next week is looking better, and there are plenty of home field games left for the Railroaders to play.  I’ve been out to Yard already today and it’s looking good and ready for play. 

The Hoppers will have to wait for now, and tonight’s contest is with the improving Miners.  Madisonville has struggled more than any other team to start off the season.  However many of their losses have been close games and lost in the final innings.  That has changed over the last few of games and they are coming into Fulton after taking out the Hoppers in their last meeting.

The fourth place Railroaders will have to, and need to, be ready for the Miners.  It’s time for the Railroaders to get serious about playing baseball if they want a chance to improve on the season.  The Railroaders have lost four straight now and can ill afford to make it five.

For the rest of this week, the Railroaders are at home tonight, and on both Friday vs Oilers and Saturday in a doubleheader with the Bombers.  Tomorrow, Thursday, they are on road at Owensboro.  Next week there are just two home games scheduled on Tuesday and Saturday.  The final week of the regular season will see the Railroaders at home for 6 of 7 nights to close out before the post-season playoffs begin.
