ROHRERS
JOLTS SCHUYLKILL MRI
10-0
IN FOUR

Memorial
field
Rohrer’s once again shut down another one of
the league’s teams in four innings with a score of 10 all. The game itself was a
slow starter with Rohrer’s held to only two runs for the first couple of
innings. Once again good pitching proved to be just the tonic that the old
family physician prescribed for the Rohrer’s ball club today as they laced the Schuylkill MRI for 10 runs.
The
MRI pitcher kept our boys at bay for over two innings throwing strikes and changeups.
It took a little while till the boys got their mindset straight and the bats
let fly with hits up high, down low and line drives smacking the outfield fence.
It was a nice evening observing the various styles of batting.
On
the mound starting for the Rohrer’s club was Dylan Biever, our left-hander. He
has the courage, the heart and the stuff and the general equipment to stop any
batter in this league and need have no fear of the slugging of the so-called
heavy hitters that are in the league. Relieving Dylan, was Nate Dixon, a strong
right-hander who had a fine day pitching and made sure that MRI did not score
any runs. We have four pitchers on this club, led by manager Grace, that can
hold their own against any in the league. Drilled into the noggins of these
four pitchers are manager Grace`s rules. Take your time and relax. Take
advantage of your defense. A strikeout takes a minimum of three pitches. A groundout
just one and learn from your mistakes. If you fall behind in the count, you
come back with your best pitch. And by golly from what you see out on the mound
is just that.
The
Rohmer’s club made a sensational defense in this game and our infield stopped
at least two runs by sterling plays and caught the MRI flat-footed .They kept
the score to zero runs. Our outfield played superbly and allowed nothing to get
by them.
As
umpire Cooper called, “ Play ball!”, our boys took the field with Dylan Biever
on the mound. Nate Dixon on first base. Blake Lipko on second base and Brent
Kaunas on shortstop. Dylan Grace at third base with Troy Oswald in right field. JT Fulkrod was in
center and Matt Ross in left field with TJ Shappell the catcher.
Our
left-hander, Dylan Biever, warmed up as MRI came out for their first at-bat.
Dylan walked the first batter. Dylan struck out the second batter with some
hard pitching. As the MRI player on third tried to steal home, Dylan rushed to
the plate and got them out from a nice ball tossed by TJ Shappell. Dylan walked
the fourth batter. The fifth batter hit a choppy grounder to shortstop Brent Kaunas who immediately threw
the batter out at second.
Manager
Grace got the club’s attention in the dugout and cautiously warned them. “Be
careful and don’t swing at anything crazy”!
