Another stop! In the fifth round of the first round of the national Serie B championship, group B, the Bolzano Baseball Club surrenders on the friendly diamond of the “Lazzarini” in via Cadorna at Longbridge 2000 Bologna, in fact the farm team of the multi-titled and renowned battleship Fortitudo Bologna. In the double match, the red and white hosts suffered yet another double setback (8-18 in game 1 and 5-19 in game 2): five out of five. An unexpected roadmap, a trend to be reversed as soon as possible by leveraging the strength of the group, trying to eradicate the negativity that has started to creep in as soon as possible.
Against the Bologna team the start was immediately uphill. The guests got off to a good start and the hosts paid dearly for three defensive errors, ending up immediately behind. In the second half the Bolognese team increased by a point and Bolzano broke the deadlock by bringing home a player. The guests increased by one in the third and one in the fifth inning, with the red and white scoring the second point. Then Bologna takes off scoring four, one, five and two points in the remaining rounds, with the red and white scoring four points in the seventh and two in the eighth inning. On the home mound the starting Divina was then taken over, in order by Donega, Segata, Gaiga and Mosca, who were unable to create a solid alternative.
In the second match, Bolzano BC started very well, giving the impression of finally being able to break away from the post. On the mound the new Venezuelan pitcher with a Spanish passport Reinaldo Josè Borrego Garcia, born in 2004, in his second outing with the red and whites held the Longbrige 2000 bats scoreless for three innings and the home attack took home one point in the first and four in the second round, with the third coming to nothing. The Bolognese, Fortitudo’s hotbed, raised their heads and overturned the result in the fourth round with six important points, which became seven immediately afterwards. Bolzano is no longer able to make the bats work as they did at the start of the second match and remains dry, while the guests sink the attacks in attack scoring five points in the seventh, one in the eighth and six in the ninth round making the score take on significant proportions the final.

The turning point was two home runs, two home runs as heavy as boulders in the economy of the match, which paved the way for the Bolognese, decisively shifting the balance. Perrone unavailable, Tagliazucca, Donega and Berenzi close out on the home mountain.
For the coaches, the red and white club and the entire group it is now essential to find maximum unity and work hard to iron out critical issues in both the offensive and defensive phases. In the sixth round, Saturday 25 May, Bolzano will be on stage on the Fogliano Redipuglia pitch to meet Rangers Redipuglia, a team with a long history and great reputation, second in the standings with 6 wins and 4 stops.
