News and Announcements
Paul Krause answered the bullpen bell and sealed another CRC League victory for the Cobalts Thursday night.
Final score: Cobalts 5 Receptions 2
Paully threw 4 innings of relief - getting the Win & Save as the game got interesting when Receptions had the go-ahead runner on base with no outs in the 4th inning.
Big RBIs by Tom and Todd Taylor, and Mike Daddy Hatfield fueled enough offense to break a mini losing streak for the Balts. Previous week saw the Balts drop a tough loss to Champions (up 3 runs going into final inning) and to Yorkville in last Thursday night League action.
Cobalts now stand at 6-2 in CRC League (NABF qualifyer) and 8-4 overall.
Next up: Chiefs at Dayton Dragon Stadium July 4th

A Good-Good Night for Cobalts - Two W's!
Cobalts improved to 5-2 Overall with two solid wins over top level teams in CRC Thursday League action.
Game #1 had Morgan the Magician dazzling the talented youngsters of the Wasted Talent Team with 7 complete and 0 Earned Runs. Final 6-1...Taylor Boys with multiple hits to lead the late inning rally.
Game #2 versus the always tough Chiefs had Adam Captain Kirkendahl go two strong before the elbow sniper struck in the 2nd inning. But no worries - Chris Stix Sunderman charged the hill and went 4 strong to get the 2-1 Victory. Dan Ronco-Matic gets the save thanks to an incredible throw from the outfield by Ryan Rodriguez to cut down the potential tying run at the plate. Todd Taylor got the big RBI hit.
So couple nice wins as the Balts start to gel more each week. Next up: Thursday night 6:30 vs. Yorkville.

Cobalts 11-6 Victory Over Receptions Marred By Celebration Injury
Rick Rossell worked his early season kinks out for the victory while the Cobalt bats exploded jumping out to an 11-1 early lead.
Cobalt Rookie Matt Hall scored 4 times to lead the offense along with Ryan Rodriguez's 3 RBIs.
But, in the post-game celebration, Coach was almost rushed to the hospital in a terrible Natch Can Cutting incident. The culprit was a Cobalt Rook putting an empty back into the cooler which had the basic effect of an IED. "What are they teaching kids these days" Coach was heard mumbling as he scuffled off toward White Castle...
Next Up: Thursday June 10th Double-Header
6:30pm vs. Wasted Talent and 8:30pm vs. Chiefs

Mix some fresh new talent in with the Cobalt Veterans and you usually get a strong start....not yet in 2010.
Game #1 (Thursday 6pm) versus Flames had the Balts jumping out to a 4-3 lead in 5th inning behind a Wags homer only to have pitching and fielding break-down late in an 8-3 loss.
Game #2 (Thursday 8:30 pm) the Cobalts did pull together a nice 3-1 victory over a good Cheviot squad. Mikey Taylor with the big RBI game winning hit. Rick Rossell and Chris Sunderman combine for the W on the hill.
Game #3 (Sunday 1pm) versus Yorkville saw the return of Mr. Becker to the hill who went 3 scoreless. Then Sunderman worked 2 good innings giving way to eventual winner, Sunshine Morgan - doing what he does best (throwing on fumes). Bats were lead again by Mikey Taylor with brothers Tom and Todd adding 2 hits each. Jayco also with a couple knocks in the 7-1 win.
Game #4 (hot Sunday 3pm) versus Flames again. Rex Baker goes deep but tired Balts kick it around in a circus like defensive effort. Combine with 2 pitching injuries and you get another loss to the upstart Flames (9-3). Coach Spriggs Monster of the Flames has the Balts number early in this year's campaign.
So we stand at 2-2 with a beat up staff and some holes in our bats...could be worse but we've got work to do!
