How about those Indians!
Chris Morgan opened the year on the mound for the Indians and threw 4 strong innings of 1 run ball. Timely hitting by John DiSanto, Anthony Page and Teddy Derham helped contribute two runs in the 3rd inning as did hitting by Teddy, Emil Pape and Elijah Rustin in the 5th. At the end of 6 1/2 innings, The Indians found themselves tied with the Babylon Bulldogs at 5-5. John Salvagione opened the inning with a walk and stole second. With one out, that man Teddy came through again, stroking a game winning double into the ally for a 6-5 victory.
In game two, the Indians opened up the first with 11 runs en route to a 13-2 victory. Strong pitching by starter Emil Pape and great hitting by all the boys, as 11 different players scored a run.
My thanks to Coach Ed Russo for taking the helm in my absence and to coaches Keith Wright and Tom Lapinski for their help.
The Coach Carroll "Player of the Day" goes to Teddy Derham, who went a combined 4-4, with a BB, HBP, 2 stolen bases and 3 runs scored.
Next practice is scheduled for Tuesday (4/24), 5pm at Giese Park.
Our next game will be Sunday April 29 at 9am, Tully Park vs. The Brentwood Blue Claws.
