Cobalts only need 6 innings to put away their first opponent in the NABF Regional, beating the Lexington Bombers 13-0.

Brett The Sidewinder goes the distance and gets the shutout win. It was a big night for the sticks lead by Gastrich, Kennedy, Cohill, and Cloyd with help from Hendrickson and Young Josh.

Next up in Round 2 are the Chiefs, who took the #2 bid from the CRC in place of the Bombers and won their opener against the Louisville Mustangs.

Catching Up on SOVCL Action

Posted by Mark Dietz at Jul 15, 2013 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

The College Cobalts have been busy this year gaining valuable playing time in the SOVCL. The competition has been strong as the teams are attracting good local talent from the college ranks.

With games at Brian Wilson Field, Prasco Park, and The Flash Complex, the Young Cobalts have been well travelled and amassed a 7-4 record with wins over Legends, Yorkville, Champions, and The Flash. Losses coming from Champions and Spikes.

So now that CRC League play has finished, the Full Cobalt Squad is taking the field in SOVCL action and got off to a roaring start on Saturday against Beaver Creek Sox.

Thole goes YARD and adds 2 doubles in a 5-2 Win. T-Schunk makes maybe the best catch in the infield in 3 decades of Cobalt Baseball. He dives into shallow left field and grabs the ball bare-handed as he hits head-first.

Tyree gets the Win with 5 good innings. Tyler Snoke makes his injury comeback with 2 scoreless.

Then on a hot Sunday, the Balts take on a frisky Champions squad who has enjoyed a couple wins over the Cobalts this year. But today, they meet Mr Stone who throws 6 scoreless and the Balts cruise to a 6-3 win.

In game 2, the staff looks a bit thinner but the Cobalts hit their way to a W...going on to the weekend sweep!

Next up: Yorkville at UC Stadium. 6:30pm wear gold

With 7 wins and only 1 loss in a shortened CRC League schedule this year (due to Roselawn construction) the Cobalts earn their way to a Regional Tournament appearance in Louisville at Derby City (Aug 1-4).

Looks to be a 6 Team Bracket with entries from Cincy, Louisville, Lexington, and Indiana.

Congrats Cobalts on another Championship Year!

Brett goes all 7 in an impressive outing against the Chiefs on Tuesday night at Roselawn.

Leading the offense was AJ Thole who murdered the ball for his first HR of the year - a 3 run job. Adrian Schau added 2 RBIs and J-Cloyd had 3 hits on the night. Jay-Co looked strong behind the dish for his first catching assignment of the year.

The Win sets up a nice situation in the standings for your Cobalts with the NABF Regional birth in Louisville.
