Early games this week vs. an old rival (Aero FCU Skeleton Crew) were won with good defense and enough timely hits to count. Final scores of 4-1 (yes, 5 total runs scored) and 15-3 pushed OBI back to .500 after 3 weeks of play in Season 4.
Game 1 was a 7 inning affair that remained tied 1-1 till the bottom of the 6th inning. OBI pushed across 3 huge runs to forge an insurmountable lead, to win 4-1. KC laced a 2-run Double scoring Matt and Spillane to break the 1-1 tie.
The only thing better than scoring 4 runs in a win is,,, holding your opponent to 1 run ,,, in a victory. There were excellent plays and some really good ones. Jayse made a full tilt diving catch, a beaut... Larry dodged a few outs hit sharply back thru the box and everyone made the plays that were needed.
To start Game 2, OBI scored 4 in the top of the 1st inning. Holding onto a 6-3 lead, we put up a 9 spot in the top of the 5th inning. Juan ripped 4 hits in the game with Ricky and Larry collecting 3 each. These 10 hits were at the top of the order for this game which kick started the anemic offense.
KC collected 2 more RBIs with yet another double... Annnnd, the new guy, Jayse, in Week 3 of Season 4 crushed one (down the left field line past the LF) and was able to circle the bases for OBI's first HR of the season. Only took 6 games,,, must be the heat...
This week, games are at 815/915 on Field 2 vs. Just Show Up... In fact, I do not recognize three of the teams we play over the next four weeks,,, new blood??? Let's show 'em our best...
p.s. I plan to add a new row for Jayse for Week 4 ...
