Meridians Baseball

We get to some meaningful baseball on a Saturday afternoon and answer the Bombers 1st run with one of our own, but they answer that again.   They follow that themselves though and dig us into a deep hole.  We score 2 in the 6th and 4 in the 7th for mini-comeback, but fall 7-10 to the other boys in blue.

The Cobalts come over to find that we have finished scoring for the day despite loading the bases in the 1st and they walk us off with a long 6th inning.   We go down in order in 3 of the last 5 frames with only a handful of walks and a lone hit for the duration.

Reese and Mears take their first lumps of the summer, Dolan with a 1-2-3 inning in Game 1 and Wolt is last to man the hill for the day.   Imperiale with a cameo, but we don't get to the 7th in Game 2 for him to toss so he has to settle for an inning in LF.   

Offense led by Woltermann (2H, 2B, 2R, 2 SB) with multi-hit days for Kraus and Koppelman (2-2, BB in Game 1) as well; RBI from Aultman, Kraus, Parkhurst, Biscotti and Koppelman - D. Reese with 3 BBs, R.   Averwater makes his return to give us an arm behind the dish and throws out two.

Outfield in Game 1 assumes that Wolt will get everything, infield and dugout assume the same in Game 2.

The men enjoy Gatorades of Meridians blue in between contests and Dogs of Red afterwards as thanks for an undefeated regular season (11-0).
