When you have your bad day for the week, just think about St. George Roadrunners manager Cory Snyder. His team has 27 losses in 34 games. His Golden Baseball League season-maximum of 16 roster moves are all but gone and there are 25 games left.
One of those roster moves burned early in the season was to let go of outfielder Johnny Coit. So what does Coit, who was recently acquired by the Orange County Flyers, do to the Roadrunners when he plays them last Saturday? Hits for the cycle (4-for-5 for the game), drives in seven runs and lifts the Flyers to a 14-3 stomp on home St. George — the fifth straight loss for the Roadrunners since their "What the...?" 10-1 win over Yuma.
