DIVISION ONE v Port at Don Klaebe Field Sat 30/11/24
Lost 6-8
We kicked it off in the second with three runs, highlighted by some powerful base running from Jose and banged in another three in the next when Alfredo started us up with a nice double. Port just kept banging away with a run here and a run there, and we completely dried up and then let it slip late when they got in front. Drew was his usual valiant self from the middle for most of the game. Hits : Oliver Hayes, Alfredo Rodriguez 2, Callum Park, Cesar Perez, Hayden Carrol, Armando Ramirez, Breandan Taheny 1.
DIVISION TWO v Port at Don Klaebe Field Sat 30/11/24
Lost 1-10
We put up a poor performance in this one - level after the first couple - but we let them get away bigtime. Hits : all singles to Harry Kiss, Todd Dunstall and Jimmy Chu.
DIVISION THREE v Port at Don Klaebe Field Sat 30/11/24
WON 21-1
A bit of a rout this game, with every one pretty much getting in on the act. Rhys's sac fly in the first got Jimmy home and then Carly - in her 200th game for the Club had an RBI of her own, but all paled in comparison to man of the match Elvin with his two triple and one double afternoon. Junior Will Stock chimed in with a double of his own, and Rhys put three over the plate in the last. Amara started the ball rolling from the mound until her pitch count forced her to give way to Rhys. Hits : Jimmy Chu, Elvin Avila, Rhys Owen 3, Will Stock 2, Carly Moore, Amara Quinn, Declan Quinn 1.
DIVISION ONE v Sturt Twilight Tue 3/12/24 Away
WON 3-1
Great to win away in a Twilight game, even better against Sturt, bearing in mind the cross town traffic and the fact that they are the reining Premiers. Drew got us going in the first with a double and was over the plate on Callum's hit. AJ was really on form at this point, and we scored two more from consecutive hits by Cesar, Drew and Troy, with an Alfredo sac fly rounding out our score. Sturt's only score came from a walked in run in the third. So for the last four digs there was no scoring, but plenty of angst on the sidelines. AJ completed 5.2 innings of fine work and it was left to Troy to shut them down, which he did admirably. Hits : Drew Janssen 2, Cesar Perez, Callum Park, Troy Nicholson, Greg Bravo 1.
WOMEN'S LEAGUE
DIVISION ONE v H & Grange 1/12/24
Lost 4-10
Coming off the bye, the girls let one slip with Alice Brown recording the only hit.
DIVISION ONE v Sturt at Don Klaebe Field Twilight Wed 4/12/24
Lost 10-11
Tight and entertaining game early, but the finish was exciting. We lost a little concentration in the third and they were able to notch up four, but we came back with two. Little errors on our part contributed to their five runs in the last, and we needed the maximum seven for victory. Well, they certainly got a fair bit panicky, and with their errors, we got six of them to fall just one shy. Alice B, Dakota and Indy were the pitching crew - all so young.
DIVISION TWO away v Nth Districts 29/11/24
Lost
Dakota Ding with five strikeouts and a hit was the standout along with Jemila Dadd's two doubles and two singles, Sarah McMahon also had two hits and Kym Wilson one.
Computer all fixed at great expense, so looking forward to putting up some more comprehensive reports, including all the other grades and juniors.
JUNIOR’S
Pee Wee
Had a great outing at Kensington scoring 35-21, the bats were firing and everyone played well and enjoyed themselves. The highlight being a double play on a ball hit back to pitcher position and caught and thrown over to first base. The team are really doing well.
Minor League
This week the Minor league team took on GGCD blue at home. The team went down 10 - 3 but the play of the day was a triple play made by Alessio Laurendi. With bases loaded, the ball was hit to Alessio at second base. He made the catch for the first out. Then without hesitation he saw the runner left second early so he ran to second bases and got the unassisted out. Thinking that would be all, Alessio then saw that the runner at first left early too so he threw a strike to our first baseman Jett, who caught the ball and made the 3rd out. It was an outstanding play. Also well done to Lewis Smith on his first game of baseball
.
Little League
Lost 9-2 to West Torrens, the team only had one hit for the game which was to Myles Braithwaite.
Junior League
Won 24-2 vs Kensington. Another big win this week which puts our team into 2nd position on the ladder with 6 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss. Some outstanding pitching by Chace Wallis 6 strikeouts in 2 innings and Benji Hayes 3 strikeouts in 1 inning. Unfortunately Kensington's pitchers struggled throwing 19 walks and our team capitalised with some good hitting also when the pitches were there to hit. Both Remy Brooks & Luke Fawcett caught well behind the dish in their 100th games. Hits were: Benji Hayes 3 (3RBIs), Xavier Gower 2 (6 RBIs), Luke Fawcett 1, Remy Brooks 1, Riley Sinclair 1, Arlo Cockshell 1
