4/21/13 Camp Swampy


Here with the recap is our own left handed specialist, soccer coach, and ne'er do well, Brian "SQ Neck" Phelps.

Summer weather at Balboa and a perfect 18 to start the game.

Will started off the game for the homers, since his childhood home is a few blocks away. Phelps hopped onto the bump for the visitors with Doc behind the plate calling balls and strikes. After 4 innings with an mild Wrigley type wind blowing out, the game was 5-7 in favor of the homers.

Noah relieved Phelps and that sparked a rally for the visitors. The game got tied up at 7 and then turned to 9-7. The home team took one out of the San Quentin playbook and batted around scoring 8 runs on some errors, a few well-placed hits and bases loaded triple from Carter.

Sean came in a shut down the door for the homers and Tony mopped up for the visitors. Not sure what the final score was but the homers took this one.

Highlights:

• Mike threw out Daniel stealing third with a nice tag by Jay

• The weather was perfect sans wind which played tricks on the outfield

• Carter got hit 3 times, walked and struck out in one at-bat

• JT flashed some great leather and hit the crap out of the ball

• Daniel robbed JT of a sure hit

• Sean had some good hits

• Mike, Ed, Bob, Mitch were in the squat

• Mitch golfed a curve ball 4 inches off the ground to deep center

• Hank pulled the ball well all day

• Adam showed up late and made up for it with some good hitting

More highlights but beer and fatigue have taken over

PS: Get well soon Greg.
