Numbers are deceiving, but feelings go right to the spirit and the bone, just ask the Hawaii-Hilo baseball team.
The Vulcans, despite their record of 7-17 and 7-15 in the Pacific West Conference, are having fun and believing in themselves and if you’ve seen these guys play the last few games you could probably understand why.
They came back again Monday night with a three-run, walk-off home run by leading hitter Phil Steering in the bottom of the ninth inning carrying them past Fresno Pacific (13-16, 10-10 PWC) , 7-4.
The win gave them a 2-1 series lead over the Sunbirds prior to the final, seven-inning game of the series – a 5-1 Vulcans loss.
