After leading for most of the game the Wilmington Sharks were had to score two runs in the eighth inning to beat the visiting Columbia Blowfish 6-4.
The opening night crowd at the Shark Tank was treated to quite a show Thursday night. Wilmington found themselves in a suddenly tight ballgame after leading 4-0 all night until a Blowfish rally in the eighth tied things up.
Facing their first bit of adversity of the season the Sharks responded as Alex Hill(UNC-Wilmington) led off with a single and then was sacrificed to second by Cole Rakar(College of Charleston) As Hill tried to swipe third, the catcher’s throw sailed into left field, allowing Hill to score the tie-breaking run.

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.
