MBC Finally Beats up A Kent Team

MBC finally put the hurt on a team from Kent beating the Bulldogs White 11-3 Saturday night. “Not so Sudden” Sam Deane went all the way for MBC throwing 5 innings, giving up just five hits and striking out three. He had great help from his defense which turned two double plays one of which he started with a snag of a line drive. A lead off walk came around to score in the second inning and the Bulldogs managed two runs in the fifth as he tired.

He was given great help by his offense all night and did not have to face the Bulldogs in the sixth or seventh due to the 8 run mercy rule.

Fans were a buzz with the first appearance of an ALL BAINBRIDGE ISLAND outfield. The last time there was as much talk about an outfield was during the 60’s when all three Alou* brothers played together. As with the Alou brothers, the Island outfield was airtight and out of sight all evening.

Ben Thomson (4-4) and Campbell Queen (3-3 2RBI) were both perfect and Tino Peleti (3-4 5RBI) and Stuart Fairchild (2-3) were close to perfection. Every player in the batting order recorded hits tonight.

*Bonus points for the first non Steve Queen type person to email me the names of the three Alou brothers.
