LL Minor – Ronnie’s wrap 22/11

Firstly thanks to Bob Baker for his pitching training as the improvements a clearly showing. Thanks to Tony for the difficult job of Scoring and a big thanks to Dave Nicol for his assistance and input and wish him a safe trip away with work.
Round 6 and still an induction of new players welcome aboard Nathan Valentini and Jacob Scott.
After last weeks heat wave which cancelled round 5 we travelled south to the home of the Hawks.
Brodie again started off strongly and laid the foundations and with these sorts of performances is asking for a promotion.
Jordan and Kyle also made it look simple after slightly sluggish starts and both made good contributions with the bat Kyle with a crisp hit down the middle.
Unfortunately Luke and Patrick missed an opportunity to have their time at the plate with a surprise time and game called. Luke looks set for a pitch this week and Patrick goes on holiday and we look forward to his return after crushing the ball today with the bat.
Perhaps not one Oscar’s better games behind the plate but still an outstanding effort and unlucky not to get a call on a tag at home. He also put bat on ball and pushed the field with his speed around the bases.
David Dell, Nathan Valentini, Ethan D’angelo and Josh Lee also all put the ball in the field and good base running keep the pressure on the Hawks all day.
Jacob Scott walked at his first at bat though not before swinging at head high 3 and 0 pitch got to like a guy that wants to hit though where did this come from???
2nd at bat was a nice clean hit which earned him an RBI nice work.
Not sure what the score ended up but it was lots to not so much. On a whole a nice game by all, though I can see what these boys can do and our best is still to come !!
