Upcoming Games June 14th June 15th

Gents:

There were some pluses this weekend to build upon even though we lost both games. Winning in this league is not easy against experienced teams like the Mariners and Top Hats. They find ways to score, throw strikes and play defense. We are close to them and are making progress. By playoffs time I believe we will be at that tier of play. For now let's play well this weekend to establish our progress and improve our performance in each facet of the game.

This weekend we hope to hit more and play defense like we did Sunday.

On Sunday we host the Ridgefield Reds which is a team from the Danbury League. This Sunday all the teams in our league play a team from the Danbury league in an effort to foster some cross league activity. We should expect they will throw their best pitcher and play hard to win. The game starts at 9 am and we hope to take infield at 820am. We expect to start Jim on the mound and Alex will catch. Mike and Tim will be in relief.
We expect Jose to be back from a short term bug that hit him last weekend. And we wish Travis good luck in coaching his legion team and look forward to his return in late July.

On Monday night at 730pm we host the Stamford Phillies in a makeup game from an earlier rain out. They have played well this year and will demand our best efforts. I will start that game and Charlie will be behind the plate.

As for practice, I will send a note Friday to determine if we can have BP on sat am.

Please let us know if you are not able to attend these games. Thank you
