Moe Pitches Perfect Game!
With the retirement of their Cy Young winning Pitcher due to injury, and their other Pitcher Shawn on vacation. The Lords and Ladies called one up from the bullpen, that is Outfielder/3B dynamo Moe (aka Pete). The Lords and Ladies hope that Chris' rehabilitation goes well and for a possible return from retirement for another stint with the ladies.
Definition of Perfect Game
When a Pitcher allows less than 10 runs with the fielding of the Ladies, while that is a perfect game. As well, Moe stuck out at least 3 and provided good fielding at the pitcher position. Kate and Moe teamed up for many an out, what an impressive display.
Moe's pitching style, was fast and aggressive. Always keeping the batters unbalanced, he was throwing them high and slow, varying his speeds from 40 - 44 km/h. A swing and a miss was heard many times. Albeit the famous Umpire - Brian needs to learn how to "pump" those strikeouts "out".
Seeing how dominant he was on the field, Moe nevertheless provided a critical 3 hits, 2 RBIs, and 2 runs pushing the Lords and Ladies over the top to win 12-7 in six innings.
Other Highlights
Charlie Hustle -leads the team (with at least 20 AB) in singles, Batting Average, and OBP. He went 4 for 4.
Denise - 1 for 3, with 1BB and 1 Run
Paul - 3 for 4, with a double, 2 RBIs and 2 Runs. Not to mentioning providing one half of the Ladies first double play of the year (Kate was the other half).
And of course, Moe, the player of the game.
Next game: Today @ 4:30pm
