We apologize for the absence so far this year, but here is a recap of what has gone on so far and a look into the future schedule!
The Pirates started their season off at home against Hager City on May 7th. The whole team shared the wealth as they were able to manage 11 hits and score 17 runs in 7 innings against the Skeeters. The Pirates had several players with a multi-hit game.
On May 13th the SCVBL was able to put together a team of all-stars to play in a game against the St. Paul Saints in what they referred to as a “brainstorming” (preseason) game. The Pirates had 4 players participate in this match-up including, Billy Brookshaw, Mike Brookshaw, Eric Munson, and Mike Lytle.
Saturday May 20th we were forced to cancel our home game with Bay City due to weather and field conditions. This game will be made up on July 8th at 1PM at Firehall Field.
Our most recent action was our game against Plum City this past Sunday. The Pirates got off to a rather slow start, but were able to string a few hits together in the 5th and 6th innings to start their run scoring. We won by a score of 10-0 in 8 innings, led by new-coming catcher Brandon Voelker who had 3 hits on the day.
