DIVISION ONE Away v Nth Districts 16.10.21
WIN 12-2
First week way down south, second week in the northern suburbs. Still, a win makes it all worth while, and what a comprehensive win it was. Joel started for the second week in a row and in a miserly display gave up no runs and hardly any hits in his six innings. Our bats started a bit slowly, until the third, and then they started to find their range. DChap, Nathan and Wade pushed the ball around, but we still didn't score until the fourth when Weiney (good to see you back) scored Cesar and then in the next dig, Wade got DChap home to score, followed by a three run dinger off the bat of Cesar for the second week in succession. DChap doubled, Rackers (welcome) doubled, Nathan had a RBI and Wade hit a monster two run homer, all while we leaked a couple of runs to the Reds. Good win. Hits: Wade Moore (HR) 4, Daniel Chapman 3, Troy Nicholson, Luke Rackebrandt, Troy Weinert, Nathan Nicholson 2, Cesar Perez (HR), Ryan Muggleton 1.
DIVISION TWO
Away v Nth Districts 16.10.21
WIN 17-2
We got away quickly with three, but let them back into the game with two, and that was all they got because Tyson was really on his game, as evidenced by a masterful pickoff in the third. He went four before Joe Chapman came on and gave nothing away. We hit a purple patch in the fifth with a nine run tally - Breandan, Kieran, AChap hit for a run then Rhys RBI, Tom RBI and it continued in the next for a further five with Tom, Rhys, Carly, Ethan, Todd and Kieran all getting bat on ball successfully. Another good win, and nice to get on the board. Hits: Tom Dineen 4, Todd Dunstall, Breanden Taheny, Rhys Owen 2, Andrew Chapman, Kieran Pett, Mitch Fienemann, Carly Moore, Ethan Marchioro 1.
DIVISION THREE had a bye
DIVISION SIX had a top win against the Reds 8-7 with plenty of players putting in their two bobs worth. Flash, China and Aldo McCormack all chimed in with three hits, Josh Boden and Dave Lodge both got a couple and Behr, Owen and Josh each got one.
DIVISION SEVEN also claimed a particularly good win over Norths 10-2 with Cuz collecting three hits, Watto (superbat) 2, and Behr, Sully, Dorny, Nicko 1.
DIVISION EIGHT
Surely man of the match had to go to Aaron Petros for his pitching efforts and two hits - hope so. Anyway, the boys completely outplayed their Playford City opponents to record a win 18-3. They picked up two in the first, seven in the second, five in the third and another four in the fourth to come home big winners. Hits: Aaron Petros, Shane Nicholson, Brad Atkinson 2, Oliver Nate, David Ding, Greg Oxenham, Shane Lodge, Mike Chemny, Tim Russell (RBI), Derek Milne, Lawrie Sinclair 1.
WOMAN'S LEAGUE
HOME @ Don Klaebe Field 17.10.21 v Glenelg
WON 7-3
Playing against last year's premiers, the girls took the field super confident, and it showed in a fine performance by getting in front early and going away at the end, The game was of a really high standard and there was some great baseball played. Darna did the bulk of the heavy lifting from the mound, with Carly coming in late to mop up. Sarah was a rock behind the plate and the defence was tight. The batters did their bit as well, with Leah Turner, Carly Moore, Alyssa Lasscock, Darna Veen and Kenzi StGeorge getting two each and Sarah McMahon one. So that's two from two, with another toughie next week against Sturt.
