The San Diego Force continued to roll through victories with a win over the Thunder BBC on Sunday afternoon, giving the Force a perfect 3-0 record in tournament play.

The scoring for the Force got started in the 6th after a leadoff walk by the Thunder came back to bite them in the form of an RBI single by SS Trey Martin. Joshua Sidley would go on to add another RBI single to give the Force a 2-0.

Starting pitcher Justin Coleman flirted with perfection for the first 5 innings of play, until a misplayed grounder at second base, and an infield dribbler down the third base line put on the first runners of the game.  Both runs would score on a triple by Jose Merrill giving the Thunder a brief 3-2 lead.

The Force wasted no time coming back in the bottom of the 7th due to a 2 RBI double by 2B David Hudleson. Huddy did his best Ted Williams impersonation with a 3-3 day, including 2 walks, and 4 RBI. The Force went on to add 6 more runs in the 8th before the game was called due to time constraints.

The Force continue their hot streak on Monday when they play the Highlanders at Montgomery Field. They catch the early bird special with a 10:30 am start time.
