Fall Co-ed Kickball at Ballard Boys & Girls Club Sundays

I'm going to have to give this week's player of the week shout out to Mike Zaruba. The Captain of Benekick Cumberpitch. For taking an Indy team from Downtown and turning it into something great, an official team. This is what we hope for out of our Indy teams. And even though Mike ended up having a not so great first game. Being able to organize all of this and rally his team to a solid first showing, shows everyone just how awesome Mike truly is. I hope you heal up fast Mike!

Chris was an offensive dynamo on Sunday, getting on base every at bat and scoring 3 runs. His big kick was a Grand Slam HR to really get the scoring going for the Rubber Duckies. He added a 2 run double and a couple singles for 6 RKI meaning he alone accounted for 75 percent of the offensive scoring. In left field he was a catching machine with no balls getting down anywhere within his wide range and this helped keep Ball-eving off the scoreboard until the 6th inning [where they did make a nice run, but...]. Thanks for bringing it all and having fun!

Conditions were tricky in the outfield grass with a light rain making things very slick, but hey, that didn't prevent Steven from making plays all game long. It was shut-down time in left field as he made catch after catch, including a smokin' line drive that he tracked down with bases loaded to prevent a big inning for Ballzinga. Offensively, Steven was the difference maker early--with a 2 run homer to give Tsunami a 3rd inning 3 run lead, and late--with a game winning 7th inning 3 run home run for the comback victory after the Tsunami's fell behind in the bottom of the 6th. It was a complete and nearly mistake free performance and a well deserved POTW.
