Summer 15 Friday Coed Recreational Softball @ Citizens Park

WHERE MY PITCHES AT came to play. They put up seven runs in the first inning. That was enough as the DENVER BOMBERS weren’t able to get more than three runs for the entire game. The win has put PITCHES at (1-1) and smack dab in the middle of the standings. The loss has dropped the BOMBERS to (0-1-1) and in 8th place.

The GLADSTONERS looked like a different team in week two. They were able to score 13 runs in the second inning to take a demanding lead. But in the bottom half of the 2nd, they started to play defense like they did in their first game. Luckily, they got out of the inning with a 14-5 lead. They would tack on six more in the 4th to seal the deal. The win has moved them to third place with a (1-1) record and dropped the BENCHWARMERS to (1-1).

The STICKS & CHICKS looked like the dominant team from week 1, but the DENVER DANKEES gave them a run for their money. Both teams were able to score one run in the first inning. After three inning S&C lead 3-1. The DANKEES were able to score a run in the 4th, but then the wheels fell off in the bottom of the 4th. S&C played ring around the roses and crossed 15 runners in the bottom half to take an 18-2 lead. The DANKEES fought back in the bottom of the 5th but only could score five runs to end the game. The win has put S&C at (2-0), with only two other undefeated teams.

PWC played their season opener. They were an offensively steady team, scoring an average of five runs per inning for the first three innings. The BA-KAWKS were able to hold them scoreless in the 4th in order to get one final shot. Down by five, the BKs were able to get some bats going, but they could only cross two runners. PWC won 15-12 moving to (1-0). The BA-KAWKS dropped to (0-1-1) on the season.

The field looks pretty even, every team has lost a game! The BENCHWARMERS put up eight runs in the first inning to set the tone of the game. The BOMBERS rallied in the second, to make it close again. But the BENCHWARMERS put the game away after scoring eight runs in the 4th. The BENCHWARMERS are now (3-1) and the BOMBERS are (1-2-1).

BLUE STEEL and the GLADSTONERS took turns taking the lead from each other. No runs were scored in the 4th or 6th innings, so a rare complete 7 inning game was played. BLUE STEEL went into the bottom of the 7th with a 5-4 lead, but the GLADSTONERS got some hits together and walked off with the victory 6-5. The GLADSTONERS are now (2-1) and BLUE STEEL is (1-2).

PWC put the smack down on the DENVER DANKEES. The DANKEES took an early 6-0 lead, but PWC answered with a 16-run 2nd inning. In the end it was a 13-run game. PWC improved to (2-1) and the DANKEES drop to (0-4).

For the nightcap, it was the BA-KAWKS holding off the STICKS & CHICKS. BK scored five runs in the 2nd inning to take the lead. They would add three more runs to make it 8-3. With time running out, it came down to the sixth inning. S&C scored four runs before they got three outs and the game was called 7-8. It was the first loss for S&C to make them (3-1). The BA-KAWKS sit in third place at (2-1-1).

Two teams have separated from the pack. The BENCHWARMERS and the GLADSTONERS both won on Friday to improve to (4-1). The BENCHWARMERS defeated STICKS & CHICKS with a ten-run first inning. That was all they needed. S&C scored six in the bottom of the 4th, but that would be it.

The GLADSTONERS beat the BA-KAWKS in a close one. The GLADSTONERS got up 7-0 after four innings. The KAWKS had a four run sixth inning to make it 8-5. The game went the full seven innings, but the BA-KAWKS couldn’t pull off the comeback.

The DENVER BOMBERS got their second win of the season, defeating the hot BLUE STEEL. The BOMBERS were able to cross seven runners in the fourth inning to take an 11-4 lead. BLUE STEEL would get two more runs, but it wouldn’t be enough.

WHERE MY PITCHES at and PWC met for the second time in as many weeks. Last week PITCHES won pretty easily. This time would be different. PITCHES scored a lot of runs each inning. The score was 13-8 going into the bottom of the 4th. PITCHES had numerous opportunities to make some easy outs, but they couldn’t do it. They ended up letting PWC back into the game and ended up losing in walk off fashion. With the win PWC has moved into third place and PITCHES has dropped to seventh.

It was the last night of the regular season. The STICKS AND CHICKS had a nail biter with the DENVER BOMBERS. It came down to the wire, but it was S&C getting the victory. S&C finished the regular season in fourth place. The DENVER BOMBERS finished in 8th place, so they’ll start the tournament with a play-in game.

WHERE MY PITCHES AT? came to play like they always do. They didn’t hold anything back and took down BLUE STEEL. Both teams finished the regular season at (3-4) but PITCHES took the higher seed with a better point differential.

PWC didn’t show up, so they forfeited. It was the first forfeit of the entire season. The BENCHWARMERS took the win and finished the regular season in second place. PWC finished in third.

For the nightcap, it was the GLADSTONERS taking down the DENVER DANKEES. The GLADSTONERS finished their regular season with a six game winning streak. They haven’t lost since their opening game back in June. They will take the first place seed and play the winner of the BOMBERS and the DANKEES next week.
