I'll Cut a Pitch vs Jiminy Kick It:
ICP was back and looked reloaded, and JKI was looking prepped to go all out.
Neither team was able to score in the 1st, giving the appearance of a defensive
battle. That all changed when ICP lit up the Pikes Peak sky with a 5 run burst
to break up the scoreless affair. ICP wasn't done, as in the 3rd inning, they
used a hole in left center to their advantage often as JKI was able to stop
them after 8. JKI shifted their defense around in the 4th, and it proved to be
productive as they were able to hold ICP to 2. JKI looked for any large holes
or advantages and in the bottom of the 4th, they converted on 2 2-run Home runs
to get on the board. Both teams got back to defense in the 5th, as both sides
were shut down 1-2-3. In the 6th, ICP looked to put the icing on the cake as
they cemented home 2 more runs to go up 17-4. JKI had a glimmer of hope, as
they were able to drive home 2, but it was too little too late for the valiant
effort for a comeback. I'll Cut a Pitch wins, 17-6
Brews On First vs Bazinga: Bazinga was looking to keep an unblemished
record in tact, while BOF was looking to play spoilers. Bazinga got off to a
hot start as an RBI single to right brought home 1 to get the scoring started.
Bottom 2, and a bomb by Keith Hausam brings home 2 to go up by 3. BOF was
looking anywhere and everywhere for a hole, but we're unsuccessful through 3.
Bazinga opened the score wide open, as a pedal to the metal offense brought
home 5 to go up 8. Anything BOF wanted on offense, we're simply turned away as
they were shut down on 3 pitches in the 4th. Bazinga looked to cement the win
with 3 runs in the 4th to go up 11. BOF had runners in prime position, but
couldn't convert any offense on this night. Bazinga would effectively end this
contest with 2 more runs to end the game. Bazinga wins, 13-0
Hashtag Balls vs Kickballers: #Balls was
looking to fine tune their basics to make another deep run in the playoffs, and
the KBs was ready to show they aren't a laughing matter. #Balls started the
show with a powerful 2 in the 1st. KBs wasn't going to let them get away fast,
as they retaliated with 4 of their own to go up 4-2. Neither team was able to
push home a run in the 2nd. In the 3rd, both squads got into the same mindset,
as both teams scratched home 3 runs to make it a 7-5 game. #Balls wasn't gonna
let KBs get away, as they tied the game in the 4th. That didn't last long, as
the KBs clawed 1 home to stay up by 1. In the 6th, #Balls converted on a costly
drop to tie the game at 8. Bottom 7, and KBs send a line drive to right and
#Balls throw it home, but the slide under the ball and onto the plate proved to
be the game winner. Kickballers win, 9-8
Basic Pitches vs Pitches Be Crazy:
Both teams came in experienced and looking to see where they stood against each
other. BP would get out to an early 2 run in the 1st and the gas pedal was on.
PBC wasn't able to score in the 2nd, and BP took advantage of the situation,
bellowing home 4 crucial runs. PBC would break up the shut out in the 3rd with
help of a bloop single to center. BP was not happy, and they pushed harder, for
3 more runs to go up 9-1. Whatever PBC tried, BP had the perfect counter, as
PBC was unable to produce runs in the 4th through the 6th. BP would all but put
the game out of reach with 2 in the 4th to go up 10 and convert for 4 in the
6th to go up 15-1. PBC was living on a prayer, and we're able to score 2 in the
7th, but it wasn't to be. Basic Pitches wins, 15-3
