Cincinnati CoBALTS Baseball Club

So we're getting a little older and rounder, but no reason to just give-away games. But that's exactly what the Cobalts have been up to the past two nights. Last night, we give up 3 un-earned runs in a 5-5 Tie versus The Chiefs who played well and never gave up. Shannon Morgan throws a 4 hitter but also was generous in hitting 5 batters (none left a mark as Shannon was observing the speed limit thanks to a sore arm). Cobalts had the lead 3 times in this one but failed to seal the deal. Ricardo Ayala, Tom Taylor, Ken Hatfield and Nick Schmidt all continued their hot hitting with multiple hit games. Wednesday night may have been even more charitable as the Cobalts give the tough young Bulldogs 4 un-earned runs in a sloppy 7-5 loss. Cobalts fought back with clutch RBIs from Mike Hatfield and Ritchie Ayala but too little too late. Coach Johnson's Bulldogs are definetly a talented young bunch and will be a team to watch in the City Tournament. Tonight we attempt to cut back on the Gift Giving and get back on the "w" side of the column versus the Cheviot Patriots (6:30 Roselawn).
