A Giants

Wind ... Rust ... and the Easter Bunny.

What do all the above have in common?  They all played a part in the 21 strike outs both teams displayed ... and we were responsible for TWELVE of them.  Dang Wabbit caused us Twouble!!!

Blake, Colin and Austin must of been carrying a rabbits foot ... they went 7-7 as a group.  Nick G and Cameron A blasted a couple of doubles ... with the rest of the team sharing 6 hits.

Where this team shined today was on Defense.  When the Cubs hit the ball the fielders were possessed ... to the tune of 9 put outs and 2 errors.  What was impressive were all the plays to 1st base.  As a matter of fact, ALL the assisted outs were to the first bag.  It started with 2B DP Dave and P Blake making the throws to 1st ... and continued during the game with P Josh and P Fish making the throw outs to 1st ... 2B Blake made a nice pop out catch.  But finally, it was the left side of the infield who didn't want to be outshined ... SS Tyler fielded a nice grounder with a monster throw to 1st ... and 3B Cameron A made the play of the day hurling the ball across the diamond to 1st for the out.  In the end EIGHT different players made put outs!

So who was over there at 1st catching all these darts???  That would be our Game Ball Winner ... Mr. Nick Gori ... aka "The Vacuum".  The "Vac" sucked up anything that came his way making assisted play after play ... after play ... without an error!  Throw in his 1st inning double and another hit in the 6th, scoring both times, and no doubt this kid deserves the Game Ball.
