7/25/2011 - Double-header - Bainbridge game 1, Mountville II game 2

We won a pair last evening on a field that played in our favor. No outfield fence gave our speedy outfielders the luxury of tracking deep fly balls with no obstacles except each other. Long outfield grass let us turn singles into doubles and doubles into triples. 15-10 was the score in game 1, and 12-2 in game 2. We finished the regular season at .500, a decent accomplishment after a 2-9 start.

Playoffs start next week...yes we're talkin' 'bout playoffs.

6/18/2011 - Hershey Free

I missed this game but it sounds like a doozie. We won via 15-run rule with a final of 21-6. Not too many teams we can't beat with that kind of run production. We have one double-header left in regular season play, next Monday 7/25, against two division opponents. It's crowded in the middle of our division, we could finish as high as 3rd and as low as 6th, we'll see what happens...

7/9/2011 - DACSL Tournament

We went 2-3 in the annual tournament yesterday and were knocked out in the 2nd round of elimination with a 18-14 loss to Weaverland Mennonite. All-in-all, a good day of ball, lots of swings and fielding practice. Players with .500 or better OBP's for the day were:

Justin Weaver - .778 (12/16, 2 walks)
Lloyd Herr - .667 (6/9)
Tom Gish - .589 (9/16, 1 walk)
Dustin Ebersole - .579 (10/18, 1 walk)
Shane Miller - .556 (10/18)
Lance Nissley - .556 (5/9)
Kreg Hortnig - .500 (3/6)

We're coming down the home stretch with 3 season games left followed by playoff week in August.

7/6/2011 - Chestnut Hill

We lost a winnable game last evening to Chestnut Hill, 10-5. Tied 5-5 headed into the bottom of the 5th they tagged us with what proved to be the final 5 runs scored in the game.

The DACSL tournament starts at 8:00am Saturday at Governor's Stable Field (doesn't that sound swanky...afternoon activities include a gentleman's round of polo on the courthouse lawn followed by a pheasant hunt on the back 40 acres.)

Come out and support us...we're in the opening round bracket with the team who won this thing last year!

After a long stint on the DL...Doug came out ripping.

7/1/2011 - Calvary Bible

We lost this one 13-5 in a game that was closer than the score for the most-part. We were down 8-4 going into the 7th before the wheels came off. After our 3-run 1st we didn't put another run on the board until the 5th. Another DI opponent coming up on Wednesday, then the big tourney.
