Dirty Buc Ho's: Game 4 Summary
ARC Barsinisters: 0
Dirty Buc Ho's: 12
(4 innings by Mercy Rule)
Date: Sunday, 06/15/08, Start Time: 5:00P, Park: Fireman's Field
The Dirty Buc Ho's continued their undefeated regular season streak with an easy, yet frenetic paced 12-0 victory over the ARC Barsinisters.
The ARC's were clearly overmatched by DBH pitching led by Deryl B who used 31 pitches through 4 innings while facing three batters over the minimum. Although Deryl was still strong, John C pulled him for Mark E in the 5th. Mark E continued to debilitate the ARC lineup with an inning of dominant pitching. "The staff feeds off of each other..." said John C, "...it's a competition. It's good for the team..."
The Dirty Buc Ho's produced all the offense they needed in the 1st and 4th innings. In the 1st, the Ho's put their first four batters on base with 3 consecutive singles by Matt T, Erika S, an RBI single by Mark M, and a Christina C walk. After a sharp John C line out to 2B and a strikeout by Tracy Z, Deryl B blooped a 2 run single to left. Lefty Lauren C followed with her own 2 run single over 2nd base.
Despite four hits through the 2nd and 3rd innings, the Ho's failed to score. Perhaps annoyed or frustrated by their anemic at bats, the Ho's poured it on in the 4th. Lauren C led off the 4th and started a barrage of six consecutive hits with another single over 2nd base. Brett B followed with a double and Kim F plated Lauren and Brett with a single to center. Ben Ho scored Kim F with a line drive single up the middle and she was scored by a Steve F triple to right-center. Matt T echoed Steve with his own RBI triple and was scored by a double from Mark M. An E-6 put Christina C on and scored Mark M from 2nd for the Ho's 12th and final run of the mercy rule shortened game.
"This was a good win..." said John C while adding "It was awfully hot and the last game of the day. It's easy to get a little lazy...but this team doesn't do that..." When reminded of his poor record at Fireman's field, he continued, "It's good to get a win in this little crap hole of a ball park. My teams aren't built for this field..." John C wasn't finished, adding "This park is for fly out teams who suddenly hit HR's playing here...then they trot around like they're Manny or Giambi...ridiculous. At least it wasn't a night playoff game by candle light..."
Even though the Buc's continue to plow over Sunday League competition, evidence of discontent on the team remains. When asked to comment on Deryl B's latest pitching performance, Ben Ho said "Great game by Deryl...he pitched well. I know I'd be upset if I was pulled after four dominant shutout innings...but John C is the "The Old Perfessor" of Coed softball...he'll give you some kind of statistical reason for doing what he does..."
When told of Ben Ho's comment, John C vented "Maybe some people should worry about playing and let me run the team. His function is to close games...I should've added 'closing his mouth 'to his contract, too.." Commenting on his decision to pull Deryl, John C responded "Deryl pitched a great game, but that's the way the team is built...I worry about team wins...hell, I pulled myself out of the Fall Championship game after 4 dominant innings of pitching for the same reason..."
The Dirty Buc Ho's look to continue their undefeated streak against the impressive Cider Town, on June 22 at 2:00P.
