Andy's Coed C Playoffs, Round 1: Pirates boot Brasky's to advance to North Semi's
Date: Thursday, August 29
Field: Field of Dreams
Time: 6:00P
Weather: Sunny, hot
Andy's Coed C, Round 1:
(8)Bill Brasky's: 4
(1)Dirty Pirates: 12
On a night when upsets were the norm, the Pirates played true to their top seed form by taking a 12-4 round one victory from Bill Brasky's (8). Brasky's was not a typical (8) seed having played three one run games against the other top seeds over the course of the season. Despite that, the Pirates never ceded control and held the lead throughout the game.
The Pirates' offense was sluggish over the first 4 innings, but on the back of a Pete G home-run, solid contributions by the Pirettes, and typically staunch pitching and defense, the Pirates held a 4-2 lead going into the 5th.
Pirate bats emerged from their slumber in the 5th and 6th powered by home-runs from Dave G and Pete G. Garry S continued his early inning pitching mastery over Brasky's allowing only 2 runs from the 5th through 7th innings.
The Pirates set sail to the North Division semi-finals next week to face (5) seed Chase This; date TBA.
Remaining North:
(5) Chase this @ (1) Dirty Pirates
(6) Voodoo @ (2) Moose Knuckles
Remaining East:
(8) War & Peace @ (5) Breaking Balls
(3) 459-TAXX @ (2) Philly Bawgo Fah
