Renfroe Homers Twice but Big Train Fall to Redbirds on Fathers Day

Renfroe Homers Twice but Big Train Fall to Redbirds on Fathers Day

This Hunter Renfroe swing drove his first home run from Povich Field. While the Big Train were unable to increase their win total on Fathers Day, they were able to welcome back a star. Hunter Renfore (Mississippi State) starred on last season's National Championship Big Train squad and returned to Bethesda again this season. While he had begun his second season at a decent pace, many expected bigger things. Renfroe's bat agreed with that sentiment on Sunday night as he book-ended the Big Train attack with two-run homers in both the first and the ninth innings. Unfortunately for the Big Train, that was all the offense on the night and team lost 6-4 to the Baltimore Redbirds. Despite the loss, the atmosphere at Povich Field was great on a wonderful Fathers Day evening as dads came out with their kids to play catch in the outfield before the game, get a free hat courtesy of First Call Office Products, and settle in for a night of great baseball.
