Wednesday Cuernavaca Park - Week 1 Highlights

Welcome to Wednesday!!  With 4 of the most competitive teams showing on Wednesday’s, we are sure to get close games, close plays, and smart decisions!! 

Minus Dice, our first order of business is getting teams complete!!  Not that we need to be “father figure” here, but how do you get better?  Repetition.  In order to repeat, you have to have a consistent team showing, this starts with signing up.  Let’s make that happen!!  Let’s get some weekly chatter out there amongst teams, comment on these highlights, and raise the competition!!

Dice vs. Step Parents:  Speaking of repetition, we remember seeing Matt Graffam at the park working on his line drive shots before the Mile High Kickball Open August 2nd…you talking bout practice?!  Yessir!!  And we’ve noticed a big difference in Matts’ shots through the gap!!  It happened in this game too…Graffam smacked a line drive shot in the top of the 3rd inning for Dice to bring in 3-runs and make this game a 6-1 margin.  We have a lot of talented athletes on our fields, but it’s the execution of aggressive base running, strategic pitching, unselfish kicking, and errorless fielding that create a margin of 6-1…Dice brings this every week and kudos to them.  Both Brett Stanilka and Justin Andrew Anderson were able to confuse Step Parents at the plate…nice werk fellas!!  It seems everything does end with Dice.  Dice wins 8-1.


Hose Draggers vs. Punani Patrol:  Both teams started this one out with makeshift rosters, but heck…better to be where we’re at on August 27th than being at the same spot on September 3rd!!  Let’s see what happens between these two teams when rosters are full and we don’t hear, well we didn’t have this person, this person, and this person!!  One person who has improved with time/practice/repetition is pitcher Chad Ferrier with Hose Draggers…we were impressed with Chad painting corners…way to raise your game Chad!!  Both teams started out scoring in this one, but Punani was the team able to calm down after the 1st.  Punani went on lockdown defense for the rest of the game and stymied the offensive presence of Hose Draggers by having more errorless innings!!  In the end, it’s all about base runners, NOT the huge blast to deep center that ended up getting caught for an out, and that is what Punani focused on scoring 4 out of 6 innings…great execution Punani!!  Punani Patrol wins 6-2.
