JFK Leads Balts to Another CRC League Win

Posted by Mark Dietz at Jun 19, 2013 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

John Kennedy had 3 hits, 3 RBIs, and a Web-Gem in the outfield to lead the Cobalts in a 7-6 Win over Yorkville last Tuesday night.

Adrian Shau gets the Win with 4 solid and Steve Hendrickson gets the emergency hold & save after the injury bug hits the Balt bullpen. Props to Steve who seemed more relaxed since his power-hitting brother was not in attendance.

Other not-so-highlights included AJ Thole fielding with his knee cap instead of glove, Bobby Nacho officially retiring due the game of baseball being "gay" and the bucket-o-beer going untapped due to late night scare from the Popo.

Next up: Champions at Testerman Park

Cobalts move into a 1st Place tie in CRC League Play with a nice quick (1.5 hrs) game at Roselawn Tuesday night.

Cobalt Pitchers were dealing: T-Stone threw 3 solid and T-Snoke threw a strong final 4 both combining for 8 strike outs and only 1 earned run. Helping their cause was 3rd baseman Bobby "Nacho" Noeth who stole 2 hits away from Bomber batters at key times.

AJ Thole got his groove on at the plate with a "lift and seperate" smash off the fence scoring 2 and Adrian Schau added a couple hits in the win.

Thanks to the quick game the Balts crushed two coolers of Natches before the other field's game was even done.

Next up for the 8-3 Balts is a college game at Rotary Park vs. BeaverCreek Sox on Saturday.

Monday night at NKU Stadium and the Cobalts spot the hungry Legends a 2 spot in the 1st inning...that gets the chirping started but it only makes the Balts more determined. Good Pitching by Joey, Chris, and The Side-winder shut down the Legends offense for the remaining 8 innings as the Balts put up 7 runs with two big innings.

John Cloyd lead the offense with a  couple of hits and runs scored utilizing his wheels. Jay Schunk drove in a couple with a big blast to the wall in the 3rd inning. Good D at 1st by Mummy worthy of  a mention.

Cobalts now 7-3 with Bombers up next on Tuesday at Roselawn. First place is on the line.

Kurt & the Cobalts Go-Off in 12-1 Win

Posted by Mark Dietz at Jun 6, 2013 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

Kurt Hendrickson hits 2 triples and collects 4 hits in a runaway victory over SOVCL opponent the Cincinnati Flash Thursday night.

Some on-lookers later reported that as Kurt slid into third base he looked in the Balt dugout and screamed, "I'm the REAL Hendrickson...Steve who?!?!?"

Anyway, joining the hit parade was Cloyd, Young Josh, and several others helping Tyree to his second Win of the season. He worked 6 innings of scoreless ball. "Lawson" also worked scoreless ininngs despite his Jimmy John open wound.

All good in Cobalt Land as the boys are now 6-1 on the season.
