Cobalts Win 2 Over Eastern KY Ridgerunners

Posted by Mark Dietz at Jun 24, 2012 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

A well rested Mike Peterson took the hill and went 5 strong to get the 7-3 Win in game 1 over the boys from Eastern Kentucky.

Then Brent Wagner dazzled for 7 innings in a 16 K effort for the 6-1 victory in Game 2.

Mike Gastrich and Rocky Curnayn lead the offense in both games while Tyler Schunk took over 1st place in the helmet anger-toss yardage race.

Thanks to the Ridge Runners who drove a long way to play the 'Balts on a steamy Saturday afternoon!!!

Cobalts now 14-3 on the season.

Cobalts 2-1 Winners over Chiefs

Posted by Mark Dietz at Jun 19, 2012 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

Another great game between the two squads with Cobalts outlasting the Chiefs deep into extra innings:

2-1 your score in 9 innings. T-Stone gives up only 3 hits in 7 innings and Josh Williamson gets the Win with 2 hitless and scoreless.

The bottom of 9th was drama filled after Gastrich singled and Tom Taylor hit a double with no outs....fast forward to bases loaded, 2 outs, full count on Rocky Curnayn and ol' Rock works the Walk-Off Base-on-Balls to bring home the winner just before midnight!

Cobalts now 12-3 overall and sit in 1st place in CRC League Play.

Weekend Split

Posted by Mark Dietz at Jun 19, 2012 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

Yorkville gets a little revenge in the first game of a Father's Day Sunday DH beating the Cobalts 5-1. The Yorkvillians' bats were hot and the Balts were not.

In game two, the Cobalts survived a long one against the Talons, 9-8....not a highlight reel of fielding prowess but we'll take the win.

Cobalts now stand at 11-3 going into Tuesday night league action vs. Chiefs.

Tringale Leads 'Balts to 10th Win

Posted by Mark Dietz at Jun 12, 2012 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

Veteran Cobalt Rob Tringale isn't the flashiest of ballplayers, but somehow he gets 'er done! This week he was on base 6 out of 8 ABs and played solid defense wherever he's needed...leading the Cobalts to a Tuesday Night League Victory over the Cincinnati Royals 10-0.

Mike Peterson gets the Win and Mikey Taylor, John Kennedy, Todd Taylor, and Curtis Hendrickson helped Tringale score the runs.

On Sunday, the Cobalts ran into a solid Portland Rocket Squad who saved their Ace for the Balts....he was dealing and the Boys in Gold only managed 1 hit in the 3-0 loss. T-Stone deserved better as he only gave up 3 hits in 5 innings.

Cobalts stand at 10-2 overall now in 2012.

Cobalts Add More Wins in Early June

Posted by Mark Dietz at Jun 9, 2012 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

Tuesday night saw the Cobalts dressing Coach Joe Monster Spriggs for duties at 1st base...is this 2004 or has everybody given a Gold & Navy jersey left town? Well, anway, the Balts notch a W behind T-Stone's strong outing in a 4-1 victory over Yorkville.

Wednesday night a bit better showing for the game at Univ. of Cincinnati stadium. Mike Peterson and Tyler Snoke combine for a solid win against the talented Champions Academy. 4-3 your final. Morgan Gregory, Rob Tingale, Mikey Taylor and John Kennedy with big hits.

Saturday back to dressing the batboy to make 9.....but again, Cobalts get a Win: 17-1 over the Talons thanks to Rob Nesterhoff going absolutely nuts. He hits for the CYCLE PLUS A GRANDSLAM!!!
