Breakfast of Champions This team likes the heat. MBC pounded out 16 hits to beat the CVAC Gators 11-7 for their third win in a row. The victory improves the MBC 13’s to 5-3 in league.
Stuart Fairchild pitched five masterful innings before tiring in the sixth. Combining low fastballs with his tremendous change up Stuart held the Gators to two hits while striking out three. Nick Reeves came in to relieve and was stung by five seeing eye hits in a row but was aided by two tremendous defensive plays. First Ben Thomson fired a perfect strike to third to nail a runner who tried to advance on an infield single and then Campy Queen made a Roberto Clemente like toss home to nail a Gator trying to score from second base on a hit to right.
Sam Deane came on to close the game out in the seventh for the save.
This team is hitting like nobodies business. They notched 23 hits this weekend to hit .517 and score 24 runs.
MBC has a new murderers row in Tino Peleti (4-4, a double, triple and 2RBI), Stuart Fairchild (2-4), Campy Queen (2-4 a double 2RBI) and Mitchell Smith (2-4 2RBI). Ben Thomson (double), Nick Reeves (double), Andrew Kennedy (double) Spencer Hogger, Sam Deane and Keenan Heller all had hits and Peter Rakita hit a towering sacrifice fly.
Tino feeling somewhat weak after his Saturday performance and in the need for some extra protein, Tino ate a fire ant prior to the game. It sure put a fire in his bat. Both his triple and double bounced off the fence. Just so we all get the word, the league office has now come out against eating fire ants and will begin a new fire ant testing policy. So let’s all just say no to bugs!
