Though the schedule is not out quite yet, the League Standings thru Week 7 have been posted and 10-4 OBI assured itself #2 Seed and will most-likely play the winner of #10 Waste Management vs. #7 Audi North Scottsdale in the quarter finals of the upcoming Season 3 Tournament. Time and Field are yet TBD ...
For the first time in Season 3, there were three OBIers who missed time the same week. Clint's arm injury along with DC's over exhuberant physical therapist caused both to miss the games, though both attended. Matt missed and was not invited to attend,,, as he was a sicky ...
An interesting side note, this weeks games were the first Matt has missed in 2013. He was last player to miss time, last one who could have received a 2013 Perfect Attendance Record. Alas, we will have to wait until 2014 to try again...
Our fill in players were Dre' and Jayse. Dre' shined offensively and Jayse defensively. Both individuals contributed greatly towards the sweep of Audi. Though, in truth, as much as DC shown brightly last week,,, Steve stepped up in a big way in Week 7 ...
Steve set the tone with a 3-Run HR in the bottom of the first during Game 1 to help forge a 4-2 opening inning lead. This two out blast lead the way for the 7 Run 4th inning that came following the first two hitters of that inning making outs. The defense was strong and the offense consistent during the 16-10 victory.
Game Two's 19-14 win was a back and forth battle where a 5 Run Top of the 7th inning turned out to be the difference. Again, Steve led the offense with a 3rd inning Leadoff Single and then 5 RBIs in his final two AB's ,,, including a huge 2nd 3-Run Big Fly of the day to break an 11-All Tie.
There were many contributions from Ryan's 5 hit, 3 RBI evening, to Larry, Juan, and Ricky each collecting 3 RBIs in game 2. The 35 Runs in Week 7's games is a Season 3 high. Keep it Rollin' OBI ,,, the Tourney is up next...
BTW,,, a reminder to bring you Season 4 $$ this week as next season fast approaches...
