Spring Softcore Kickball Downtown Tues/Thurs

Thank you to everyone that came out to play at Cascade Playfield! Ball Busters had a double-header and split the two games with a convincing win in their second game. Looking to Score won the first matchup and brought their kicks/defense and team spirit. Indy K#9 put some game together, and showed signs of improving. For this week's player of the week, we honour Ball Buster's Ryan Tsoi. Ryan had 3 hits and stellar defense in the outfield. He helped his team by kicking the ball and recording outs on deep kicked fly balls. Congrats to Ryan and his team Ball Busters on winning 1 of 2 games played tonight. See you next week!

Congratulations to Sonia Golemme and Credit Crunch this week. Credit Crunch pulled out a win versus Looking to Score with some late game-saving defense. Second baseperson Namita Kumar made catches and so did Sonia in pivotal moments of the game. Wow. If you were not at Cascade playfield to witness Sonia's catch in left field, you missed the best catch on a long flyball down the line this season. When both teams cheer a defensive play, you have to stand up and applaud too. Recognizing Sonia Golemme's outstanding catch on the left field line, late in the game and when it counted most, is what Player of the Week is set up for. Wish we had Sonia's catch on video-- or maybe the video would just not be the same exciting play as it was to see in-person. Sonia Golemme takes home this week's Player of the Week honours. That was a good win by Credit Crunch to barely beat Looking to Score. Also, shout-out to James Irvine from Bag of Kicks on his speedy recovery from his leg injury.

Good games at Cascade Playfield this week. This week, we recognize Whitney for going out of her way to help everyone have a good time playing kickball. With only one game left in the evening, INDY K#9 was in desperate need of players. In order to play, Bag of Kicks offered up one of their own, Whitney, to help K#9 and Bag of Kicks play a full game. Player of the Week goes to Whitney for selflessly helping another team- she even collected a couple hits to aide. Thank you Whitney. These kinds of acts help our league be the best and most fun. Again, congrats to Whitney for winning POTW.

Looking to Score was scheduled for two games at Cascade playfield. The first game was a forfeit by Indy K#9. The second game was closer than the score shows. Zach Goldstein wins this week's POTW because, during the hour of waiting for their second game, he got his team to just have fun and throw the ball around and play in the park and take a team photo! Great kickball season and see Looking to Score next season.

Besides catching everything that came his way on defense, Mitch came up big with his foot as well. It was the top of the 6th--championship game and tie score when Mitch came to the plate. There were 2 runners aboard when he launched a high, booming kick toward center-right field--it went back, it kept going and boom! it landed on the concrete past the outfield for a 3-run homer, giving My Other Foot a 3-run advantage and they held on to capture the title. Way to go Mitch!
