DIVISION ONE
Twilight v Sth District 18.01.22
WON 6-2
Really needed this win to end the losing streak that began after the Christmas break, where we lost a few games that we surely should have won, which makes it all that much harder to climb into that top six. So Tolsy took to the mound and gave us the platform for the win by going the distance in a brilliant display giving up just the one hit and striking out ten of their batters and only allowing a couple of walks. We started with a Todd double and two walks and were poised to score but left them out there, and had to wait until the fifth to get on the board - meanwhile the Hawks had two their way. Troy W got us mobile with a sac fly to score a run and then with two out and runners on, Joel, with ice in his veins, popped one down the middle to bring in some more. Rackers put the seal on it in the last when he launched a huge two run bomb. We saw a great catch at third and put-out at first by Weiny - worth the price of admission. Hits: Cesar Perez 2. Wade Moore, Todd Dunstall, Luke Rackebrandt (HR), Tom Dineen, Joel Chapman 1.

WON 4-2 Petty doubled to enable Jimmy to start us up and then we had to come off for a brief rain delay. On resumption we left a couple on base, but then scored three in the third after Lodgy's RBI and because of the Skipper's extraordinary base running expertise. Carly smacked a terrific triple but, while standing proudly on third base, the heavens opened and the game was cut short. Hits: Kieren Pett 2, Richard Olsen, David Lodge, Carly Moore 1. Joe Chapman pitched.
DIV SIX and DIV SEVEN both made the trip out to the North-east suburbs not knowing if the conditions would enable them to play, but play they did, with mixed results, the Sixers losing 3-10, and the Seven's having a resounding triumph 16-1 In the Sixers game, Aldo McCormack had two hits, and Nick McCormack, Leigh Pedder, Owen Williams two, Nate Oliver and Flash had one each. In the Seven's game Sully did a top job from the mound and helped himself to a hit as well, and Tyson Jarvis excelled with two doubles and two triples, while King K had three hits, Behr, Cuz, Cam two, and Nick, Nate, and Rev chimed in with one each.
DIV EIGHT
The boys shot themselves in their collective feet when they allowed five runs in the first. There it is again - one poor inning and the game is cooked. They hung in there and looked a silly chance to pinch the win when they came back from 2-9 down to the final 5-9 result. HITS: Brad Atkinson 2, Derek Milne, Shane Nicholson, Lawrie Sinclair, Greg Oxenham 1.
JUNIORS are raring to go and the all start again next week.
