Game #1 Neeta: 12:00 PM AB vs RK-W
Opening game of the season was a slug fest with Road Kill prevailing 28-17. ABCO came out in the top of the first scoring 12 runs. Road Kill came back with 5 in the first 6 more in the second and took the lead for good in the 4th. The game was highlighted by Cav’s 3 bombs and Ditty’s blast into Roth’s yard. KJR and Coach Cahill also hit homers. Bob Roth should up late, batted last and was 3-4 with not one ball making out of the infield. Steffan was 4-4 and newcomer DJ Brown and Clarkie each collected 3 hits.
Abco
come out very strong putting together 12 runs in the first inning,, but after
they were flat. 12-5 in the 2nd and Road Kill kept climbing. Road Kill hit
7 dingers against 2 by Abco. Rusty looked like a pop up king on the mound,
for he popped up 9 out of 11 batters at least once. Final score was 28-17

Game #3 Brooks: 3:00 PM FL vs SD-W
StewDoggz 22 Lakes Flakes 16
The most decorated franchise in ML Softball history is back. So it was only fitting that in their return, the Lakes Flakes played their first game against the most successful team in recent history, the StewDoggz. However, it looks like the Flakes are going to have to postpone that coming out party, because the 'Doggz controlled this one from the start. The first inning saw the StewDoggz jump out to a 4-1 lead, powered by a 3-run homer from free agent signee of the year, Frazier. The 'Doggz offense was relentless all afternoon, scoring in every inning and taking a 22-8 lead after 6 innings. Every player on the team had a hit, and all but two had multi-hit games. Home runs were also turned in by J-Rod and Larry. It was a total team effort in this one, and the Big Voo earned his first victory of the year on the hill.
The Flakes saw their first loss of the season. John Iadanza pitched well against the hard hitting Doggz. Flakes, still learning how to gell with this newly formed team cam on late in the 7th giving the Doggz something to think about for the next time when the "Flakes" will be a very different team.

Game #4: Brooks: 4:30 pm SD -Wvs VI
StewDoggz 20 Vandelay Industries 12
This was a good one right from the start. Two teams that always enjoy playing each other got locked into a serious battle on opening day. The StewDoggz took the early lead thanks to a 7 run 2nd inning, but that lead dwindled as the game wore on. Vandelay chipped away and hung around and fought their way to a 1 run lead entering the final inning. But as has happened countless times before, the 'Doggz came up big with their backs against the wall. Down a run to start the 7th, they plated 9 runs to blow a tight game open in the final frame. Offensive performances for the StewDoggz included Voo's 3 for 3 day, JD's 3 for 4 with 4 runs scored, and J-Rod's 3 for 5 with 4 RBI's. Shields hit his first career home run, but gave everyone a laugh with his premature celebration. Thinking he had enough pop to reach the street, he raised his arms in the air on the way to 1st base only to have it land 10' short, forcing him to leg it out. Continuing his power surge, Larry hit his team-leading 2nd homer, and was also robbed of another by Stearnswith some fancy footwork in front of the street. Schaeff picked up his first win of the year on the mound with a well pitched game.

Week # 2 April 26th
Game #1 Neeta: 12:00 PM AB-W vs GH
Another first inning strong for ABCO, but finally it pays off. 11 run first inning by ABCO held up against the Guns N Hoses. It was all pitching for Rick McCormick had 3K's on the mound, and the entire field was solid. No real highlights though cuz I don't believe there was any home runs or guys batting for the cycle. After the first inning, S@#t was kind of dead!
