Spring Co-ed Softball at Northacres Sundays

Morgan accounted for 3 monstrous home runs on opening day. He is now on pace to hit 21 on the season, and start his trek towards 755.

The Evil Tangents only had 9 players, when Brandon Chang hurt himself leaving the batter's box. He hurt his lower back, but still managed to lumber to first. Though in obvious pain, Brandon refused to leave the game and leave his team even shorter. He moved from playing third to first base.

In the final inning he delivered a huge RBI double (which he might've been able to stretch into an in-the-park HR if he wasn't so hampered by his injury).

Finally, Brandon made a great defensive play at first. A ball was severely overthrown to first, but Brandon neglected his pain, leaping up an coming down with the catch. Although an out wasn't recorded, he kept the baserunner from advancing on the overthrow.

***An honorable mention for POTW goes to Swing Shift Loco's Rachel Han, who burned the outfielders twice as part of her 4-6 day.

With the precision of Jamie Moyer, Rich Phelps consistently put the ball in the strike zone so that his defense could do the great work that Swing Shift Loco is known for. Like a surgeon, Rich was throwing strikes on about 90% of his pitches and he wasnt too shabby at the plate either as he went 3-4 with 3 RBIs.

It was hot and dry out at Northacres playfield on Sunday, but Scott was cool, calm, and collected and pitched Team Zissou to the victory. Both starting hurlers were superb, but Scott pitched the whole game and his excellent control and good variety of pitches held the Swing Shift Loco offense in check and Zissou eked out a close win.
