Robots Softball

The rain apparently drenched most of the eastern seaboard just happened to miss McCarren Park, as there was not a drop of it to disrupt our games. We took advantage of this game by routing the Soft Spot Specials by a score of 23-8.

There were too many contributions to name, but among other things, it marked the return of Luis, who had a solid game at the plate. Bryan in the outfield made some remarkable catches which really kept us in the game. Also, thanks to Jessica for taking both sides of the Robots battery.

The win improves our record to 8-3, and because Red Star lost, we took sole possession of second place. Way to go, ‘bots!

We avenged our opening day loss trouncing the K&M Swingers by a score of 19-11.

Johnny and Petemo were key with five  hits in the game. Brandon hit another home run that nearly reached Driggs (again!) and call-up player Juan Martinez hit a grand slam in the ninth that all but iced our victory against a very potent team. Pilar also came up huge with three key hits that ignited our offense.

Players should have received an email containing the box score and a copy of the score sheet.

Our next game is on Saturday, June 26, at 6pm, against the undefeated Papacito’s All Stars.

Or was it 12-7? Either way, I heard that we played great defense. Good work everyone.

Next week, there’s no game but there will be a pickup game on Saturday, May 22, time TBD.
