Denver - Wednesday Highlights - Week 3

Cuernavaca Park Field 1 (6pm)

Punani Patrol (Neon Pink) VS. Step Parents (Royal Blue): 

For our first game of the night, we had an evenly matched - balls to the walls game!  Punani started it off in the top of the first with 2 RBI’s from Andrew Rohr to get the early lead.  In the bottom of the first, Step answered with 2 of their own to tie up the game, however Punani came right back in the top of the second and scored another 2 runs to take the lead!  In the bottom of the second Step couldn’t counter due to the great pitching from Jeff Cornetet (DON’T FORGET!), with a perfect 3 up 3 down.  Punani scored another in the top of the 3rd and held Step scoreless in the bottom half – Punani led 5-2.  Both teams had perfect defense for the next couple of innings and it wasn’t until the bottom of the 5th when Step broke the silence and scored their 3rd run of the game cutting the deficit to 2-runs.  Step held Punani again in the top of the 6th and scored another run in the bottom of the 6th to make it a 1-run ball game!  You could feel the crowd tensing up and the players were getting serious as everyone was communicating on the field!  In the 7th inning, each team scored, Step 2 and Punani 1, so we had a tie ballgame and went into overtime!  Step held off Punani in the top of the 8th and then, with 2 outs, in the bottom of the 8th, Step had runners in scoring position, and a perfectly placed ball created the final score of the game and the come-from-behind VICTORY!   Step Parents Wins 7-6.

Cuernavaca Park Field 2 (6pm)

Dice (Purple) VS. Put It In The Bunt (Neon Orange):

The second game of the night was a lot of fun and we saw some great plays on the field.  Dice started the game scoring in the top of the 1st with one run, have we ever mentioned, he who scoreth 1st, usually wins in kickball…it’s over 70% of the time!  Brett Stanilka, formally known as “The Stash,” had a little more pep in his step and a little more pride in his stride on this evening…we credit this excitement due to his brand new ball he was playing with!  Brett recorded 3 strikeouts in this game and we interviewed him after the game.  “I’ve always been a great pitcher, but with this new ball, watch out.”  This was re-tweeted across the nation and he is now trending…kickers beware!!  In the top of the 4th DJ Dan Linn had a 2 RBI double to increase their lead of the game.  PIITB scored their first in the bottom of the 4th with a RBI single from Kiki Fornito (sp). Dice answered back with a 2 RBI triple from Graham Palmer in the top of the 5th and we’ve got another trending topic…is Graham Palmer placing the ball better than any one in the league these days????  Unfortunately, PIITB wasn’t able to keep up with Dice, however we did get a note from the referee that it was his fault.  Dice Wins 12-3.

Cuernavaca Park Field 3 (6pm)


Cause We Ball So Hard (Black) VS. Pitches Be Cray (Ash Grey):

Our third game of the night was a high flying, high scoring, bring back Bonanza, extravaganza! Both teams started out with runs in the 1st, Cray put up 1 and Ball So Hard answered with 6.  Ball So Hard held Cray for the next couple of innings however Ball So Hard went on fire as they put up 8 runs over the next 2 innings….now that is Balling Hard!!  The 4th was a different story, as Cray rallied a comeback scoring another 3 in the top of the inning and Ball So Hard only scored 1…only 1 Ball So Hard??? Coming into the 7th Cray was down 16 to 4 and needed to make up some ground.  They put up a valiant effort but came up short…just needed a few more innings…come on’ GO Kickball!  Cause We Ball So Hard Wins 16-6.
