Announcement
With a berth in the NABF tournament, coach spent most of the time scrounging for players to help support the few committed that kept trudging along. Despite playing with 9, 9, 8 (and only 8) and 7 of their own players (picking up long-lost acquaintances to field a team today) in the four tournament games, we managed to compete and scare some of the other teams even with key players missing. My apologies to Cutter, Netherly, Parkhurst, Lewis and McClung for their commitments with special mention to Moore who had to call off a work engagement to keep us from forfeiting Saturday. Great performances on the mound from Cutter and McClung gutting out complete games with limited lineups behind them. Moore and Netherly sprung into action when called upon as well. Web gems to Netherly up the middle, McClung to the backstop from the mound, Koppenhafer's gun to the plate and a few squibbers to Lewis charging hard at second with buggy-whip throws along with the double-leather assist in short right field. Meridians surprise the Patriots by competing to the end with our 8-man lineup falling just 2 runs short and single-handedly costing the Stogies a shot at advancing by scoring 11 off their lefties. Our tourney MVP goes to Cutter with his complete game on a sore arm and showing off the bat by hitting tough pitching himself. Thanks again to those that showed and the subs that were called into action!
