Summer Co-ed Softball at Dahl Playfield Tuesdays/Thursdays

Anessa did a great job on Tuesday aligning the defense....for the other team. With the opposition down a player, Anessa volunteered to catch for them. She did a great job of moving the Charros players around so they could get outs. She also helped the team communicate on balls in play, letting them know where to throw the ball on each play. For such excellent sportsmanship, Anessa gets Player of the Week.

Power hitting Joe Tomascheski (total major league name) was an ALL-STUD on Tuesday night! B/c of his hits, he scored most of his teams runs....and his hits weren't the normal hits, they were the ones you have to get a ladder for to get off the roof of the house 500 yards away. Awesome job, JOE!

On Thursday, Ashley was key to her team's success. After giving up the lead in the bottom of the 4th inning, That's What She Said was in trouble. She started out the comeback on defense with a great running catch down the left field line that drew oohs and ahhs from their opponent. She would later come up in the 6th inning with the game tied and hit a solid single to put her team up for good.

Ryan's hustle helped inspire his team on Tuesday. Early in the game, Ryan had what looked to be a routine double to left field. He wouldn't stop there though. He kept going turning a routine double into a stand-up triple. Was he satisfied with that? Of course not. He turned on the after burners and made it all the way home. Pete Rose would have been proud (assuming that he hadn't bet against Ryan hitting a home run).

After watching her some of her teammates get shelled in the first half of her teams double-header, Jessie Martin decided to take matters into her own hands for the second game. Her pitching in The Ruff & Tumblers 21-12 victory over the Ninja Turtles was stellar. Cy Young, Walter Johnson, and Christy Mathewsen would be proud. But you know what? Babe Ruth would be the most proud as he was known for being a great pitcher, but also a great hitter. Jessie went 4-4 in her victory with a walk, a double, three runs scored, and 4 RBIs. Congratulations to Jessie and to The Ruff & Tumblers!
