Last week we won both games against Fifth Base, a new team to me, although some of the faces looked a little familiar. Game scores were 14-12 and 8-3.
Ed Reich pitched two excellent games, and the first game wasn't as close as the final score since we were the home team and didn't bat in the last inning. As he has all season, David Buttner got on base virtually every at-bat, setting us up for lots of runs. Mike Chapman, Al Boyd, Patrick Semmens, Jeff Morris and Lee Defibaugh all
contributed several big hits.
Dan Meehan gave the right fielder a major workout with many long drives, but unfortunately all stayed in the park and many were caught. All of Dan's at-bats resulted in our players on base being able to at least advance one base. Alan Peterson, playing left center, had the defensive play of the night on a slicing ball hit over his head almost to the fence. His catch saved us at least two runs
in a very tight game.
Our record to date is 8-4, with two of the losses by only one run. We have three more nights of games, all of which are scheduled for Barcroft.
