The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly

Another Saturday allowing multiple games to be played.  That's two in a row!  Props to Mother Nature.  Here's how it played out...

The Good:  Griffin's Bombers hit the road traveling to Dillsboro, IN.  I know, right?... where is Dillsboro?  Well, get on route 50 and just drive west.  55 minutes later, somewhere between a couple corn fields and hidden behind a Baptist Church... there ya go.  The Bombers faced-off with the Dillsboro Cobras.  Coming into today's game, the Cobras were 4-0 and in first place.  Griffin's Bombers showed no care for either of these statistics and 10-runned the Cobras in three innings.  Final score, Bombers win 13-2.  Griffin had a great game splitting time on the field between 2nd Base and Right Field.  He struck out, walked and got nailed by a pitch (this last has really become somewhat of a specialty of Griffin's).  He also scored one of the Bombers' runs.  The Bombers improve to 4-2 overall, have scored 28 runs in the last two games and are currently on a 3-game winning streak.

The Bad:  Duncan & Paxton (shown in pic) and the 'A' Heat played the J-Taps BBA.  This one never really got off the ground.  Well, at least not from any Kelley Boy's perspective.  Duncan had a good game at 2nd Base, making a couple of nice fielding plays and walked once.  Paxton struggled a bit at the plate and in the field today --- just kind of an off-day in general.  The 'A' Heat are off to a less-than-stellar 0-2 start.  But, for reasons I can NEVER figure out... this group of boys has been slow out of the gate EVERY year for the past 4 seasons.  They ALWAYS turn things around though.  And nobody is terribly concerned at the moment.  Get 'em next time boys.

The Ugly:  The final score between Duncan & Paxton's Heat and the J-Taps BBA was 19-2...  'nuff said.
