Pitching struggles for Doubledays

AUBURN - It was only natural to play afternoon baseball under blue skies and a blazing sun on Hawaiian jersey day at Falcon Park. Unfortunately for the fans who came out in Hawaiian garb of their own on Sunday, their beloved Auburn Doubledays looked like they'd rather be at a luau than playing a baseball game.

The first-place Doubledays dropped their third in a row, losing 9-3 to the Jamestown Jammers. Heading into the all-star break, Auburn has dropped four of six games and isn't playing like a team on top of its division.

"Sometimes it's hard to pinpoint what exactly has changed," Auburn manager Dennis Holmberg said. "We were talking earlier about the Chicago White Sox who have lost something like seven straight. All teams have their streaks. Every club goes through these struggles."
