DIVISION ONE
Away v Nth Dist Twilight 27.01.21
WON 12-1
We went up north and once again it was the Troy Nicholson show - he loves pitching up there - and came away with another win. Wade started proceedings with a double off the first pitch and came home courtesy of Cesar and the Coach's hits. Anyway we got three and followed up next dig with six with all getting into the act, highlight being Cesar's homer and then three more in the third. So it was an early night and the hitters were: Wade Moore, Cesar Perez (HR) 3, Troy Nicholson, Braydon Marchioro 2, Richard Olson , Daniel Chapman, Craig Abbott 1.
Game one of double header v E Torrens at Don Klaebe Field 31.01.21
Lost 3-7 The big fireman was on the mound and went five in a sterling effort. The Redsox jumped us with two early runs but we got our groove going when Callum scored Wade but fell behind when they knocked us around a bit in the sixth with three. We certainly gave them a big scare with Cesar and Troy slamming successive single homers off as many pitchers. We really wanted the win, but it eluded us. Hits: Callum Park, Troy Nicholson (HR) 2, Wade Moore, Cezar Perez (HR), Ryan Muggleton 1.
Game two of double header v E Torrens at Don Klaebe Field 31.01.21
WON 7-6 Well at least we managed to even the ledger with a win in bizarre fashion. Two early runs and we were off and running, with no one scoring for a few digs, until they got two in the fifth and a further three in the sixth to make us look a bit shaky, and it was 2-6 down in the middle of the sixth. Double headers only being seven innings, we were running out of time. But strangely, their pitcher lost his radar after two outs and walked a couple, and his replacement then threw twelve straight balls for another three walks and he was removed, only to have his replacement throw two more walks. By now we were one run up and held them in their last for the win. Joel busted his backside to get a W, but Troy got it. Hits: Three only - in contrast to ET's eleven. Wade Moore, Callum Park and Cesar Perez.
DIVISION TWO
v E Torrens at Don Klaebe Field 31.01.21
Lost 0- 10
Plenty of zeros in the scorebook, and toward the finish, plenty of red ink. Nobody hit the high notes, but Rhys can hold his head up with his pitching and two hits, and Joel's double was a highlight. Muggsy chipped in with a hit as well.
DIV FIVE
Lost to Golden Grove 4-18
DIV SIX
Sitting very nicely at this stage in fourth spot after accounting for a very competitive W Torrens side 8-3 with the King, having shrugged off his injury, pitching well. Every player contributed with the bat with Steve Couzner having two hits including a dash to third, Tim Fawcett also claimed two, and Grant Berendt, Troy Kortekaas, Andrew Sullivan, Cam Britcher, Nick McCormack, Brett Teakle and James Stradling having one each.
DIV SEVEN
Beat Gawler 13-9 in a game that had its highs and lows. The boys from the bush humbled us with the maximum runs in one dig, but we were good enough to do it to them and add a few more to boot. Morty hit and reached on an error to record a milestone, having reached the ripe old age of eighty, the promptly took himself off. Casey again was on top of his game and the hits were: Derek Milne, Lawrie Sinclair, Mike Chemney 2, Aaron Petros, Nick McCormack 1.
WOMEN'S LEAGUE
Playing on their favourite diamond (not) at West Beach, the girls were no match for Sturt and went down 7-18 with Carly leading the hitters with three, Darna got a couple and Sarah, Alyssa and Rachel one each
Junior League
Lost to H&G 2-9 with our team struggling to get on terms with their starter.
Little League (Woodville)
Lost 13-11 after starting brightly, slackening off and then finishing with a burst. Indie and Noah pitched well to Will and they were not far off a win .
Little League (Senators)
Lost in an arm wrestle 14-17 with Luka having a day going 3 for 4 and Vince was solid at the plate.
Minor League
Beat the higher ranked Sturt 9-6 with Archie, Remy and Chase pitching well and all the team batting well to score the maximum eight runs in the first.
