Mother Nature exerted her influence this weekend, washing out this week's games against DC Associates. Make-up date is TBA.

The Knights extended their winning streak by sweeping both games over Friendly Fire, 12-11 and 14-10. PGK Kenny Goss took a Friday night off from the Council Home and was the winning pitcher in game 1.

Offense was certainly on display as the Knights swept Friday night's doubleheader against Greenbrier.

In game one, the bottom half of the line-up really came through, plating 13 of the 20 runs in a 20-11 victory. Strong performances were put up by Eddie in right field, who went four-for-four with four runs scored and Evan with solid play at 3rd and who also went four-for-four with two runs scored.
(And see, CJ, I went all the way through the description without commenting that you struck out looking).

Game two started off strong, sending 13 guys to the plate and scoring 9 in the bottom of the first inning. DJ's pitching and timely defense, including a couple of double plays held Greenbreier in check. Dave's double in the bottom of the 5th brought Manny home and closed out the game for an 18-7 victory. Manny went four-for-four with three runs scored and DJ went three-for four with three runs scored.

4/19 Game 1 vs. Energy

The season started off strong on a gorgeous Spring night. Batting in the top of the first, the first 8 Knights to the plate all reached base safely and came home to score. Unfortunately, some season-open rust showed and our fielding and subsequent base-running lacked a little polish. We came back in the top of the 5th to take the lead, but couldn’t quite hang on.

Final: Energy 15, Knights 14

Kudos to Dave Dziok who went 3 for 3 with 3 runs scored.


4/19 Game 2 vs. Energy

We bounced back in game 2. Down 4-6 going into the bottom of the 3rd, we sent all ten Knights to the plate, scoring 7, capped off with CJ’s grand slam – the season’s first home run. Our defense stiffened, allowing Energy only one more run in the next two innings, while tacking on 7 more of our own – resulting in the season’s first win.

Final: Knights 18, Energy 7

Kudos go to CJ, with the big bat and some pretty solid play at second. Also to Jorge for going 3 for 3 with 2 runs scored and some solid defense in left field.
