When bad is bad

The Shreveport Sports officially have the worst record in the American Association in the second half.

The Sports have lost seven straight.

But wait, it gets worse.

The Sports were swept in a four-game series by a St. Joe team that came in on a 12-game losing streak and left on a four-game winning streak.

But wait, it gets worse.

The Sports took a four-run lead into the bottom of the ninth. They blew the lead and then lost in extra innings.

There are a lot of excuses the Sports can use. They never got the core of their team on the field because of visa problems. They've had their share of roster turnover.

But the reality is this isn't a very good baseball team at this moment.

Can they turn it around and make the playoffs? I guess. Anything can happen. But more likely we won't have baseball during the last week of August in Shreveport.
