The Sharks will at worst go four and eight, a decent .500, to end the season. As winners of four of their last six however, they have a chance to get to the twenty win mark on the campaign.

To help take step one of their two win journey, a lefty coming off a sparkling month of July relief will look to conquer the swampland in a new month. Another help in the journey could be a Shark defense that settled in nicely during 2009. 

While it would be easy to discount the last two games and begin lamenting what could of been by saying things like, "Well a .500 record would have put us in the post season," or, "If only those one run games had gone our way more often," Shark Bits is still focused on what's left of the season.

An early double header turned into a late marathon of baseball at the "Shark Tank" Sunday night. In the end the Sharks split two games with the Wilson Tobs, a 3-1 loss in game one and a 3-2 win in game two.

A two hour and forty minute delay kept things from kicking off in the afternoon hours, but once the ball game got started, there was just one more delay.

The Sharks got off to a lead early in both games. After the first three batters reached on two base hits and a walk, Michael Rooney(UNC-Wilmington) came home on a fielders choice off the bat of Greg Bachman(Austin Peay).

The rain has stopped at the Shark Tank and we will get the ball game underway at 6:45 tonight.

There will be two games to play as the Sharks and Wilson Tobs were slated to play a double header today starting at 4 p.m. rains kept things from getting underway on time but the game will be starting just before seven.

Rain never stopped a Shark.

Welcome, officially, to baseball in the month of August. The season is coming to a close for the Sharks, meaning you need to get your fill of "Shark Bits" before they're gone.

Another close game for the Sharks last night, the hitting was just not there, but the Sharks will get at least 14 frames of swings in today for the double header.

They say a bird in the hand is better than two in the bush. I say, two baseball games in a day is far better than hunting for birds with your bare hands.

After two one run wins in a row, the Sharks came out on the wrong end of a 1-0 decision Saturday night in Florence.

Chris Kennedy(Davidson) allowed just two hits and the only tally for either side through seven frames. The lefty walked five and struck out three. One of the five walks came home with the help of two bunts for the deciding run.

The Sharks loaded the basess in the fourth with two down and put runners on the corners with again two down in the eighth, but could not come up with the RBI knock needed to get on the board.
