Sox,
Congratulations Sox on some nice work last night as everyone contributed to the win to get us back on track and ready for this weekend's challenges.
Danny rapped about a big 2 run double to give us the lead for good and followed that up with a another 2 ribby single to cap a strong 3-4 night.
And kudos to John Radkins for his 2-3 h night along with 2bb's and 3 runs scored - great job in your inaugural start! John beat out an infield hit with two outs to set the stage for Danny's gapper .
Jose played first on one leg and had two hits including blasting the longest single in varsity field history as he reached the softball diamond on the fly and made it to first standing up!
and how about Bobby U who made several nice plays at second and rapped out 2 more hits to keep his average solidly above .400 on the year
and lets welcome back Bob Ryan who ripped three hits and played a flawless third after taking maternity leave and working crazy hours on his new business. Great to have Bob back!
Defensively Chuck made a very nice play on a drive to left and Charlie caught the game like a champ. At one point Doc Parsons from the Cardinals who dropped by and was keeping the book noted we had a first pitch strike on 11 hitters in a row. That is testimony to the setting up behind the plate by Charlie and calling a great game!
Tim ripped a couple hits including a long double to the fence in left center and finished up the game strongly at SS making a nice play to end the game.
We will have some practice time at 8 am on Saturday for those who can make it. Charlie and I will be there and we hope to get some BP to get ready for the weekend.
We have two games this weekend. We host the Mariners on Sunday am at 9 am at home . On Monday night we host the Monroe Top hats at 730pm making up an earlier rainout. These are two formidable competitors and will require our best efforts.
I expect Rich Lee a tall lefty to pitch for the Mariners. he is not overpowering and changes speeds a lot and has a very good move to first.
We ought to be able to hit the ball and make the offense go. They are a good team and not likely to give us any breaks so we will need to play well in the field and hit the ball-which I know we can do.
Mike will start the Mariners game with Jim in relief.
We know Charlie is out Sunday . Please let me know if you will not be able to attend either of these games
Once again great work last night and let's carry it over to the weekend.
one last note Jose has updated the team site here:
