Ice Weasels: Winter '12 Season, Game #6

Date: March 8, 2012
Start: 6:30pm
End: 7:25pm
Where: Havins 1
Opponents: Shockers

We were the home team.

Outcome: WIN
Final score: 17-8

Notes: A very exciting, dramatic game played in terrible weather conditions -- to begin the game it was around 50 degrees Fahrenheit, and there was both rain and gusting wind throughout the contest. To make matters worse, the Weasels quickly fell behind, surrendering 7 runs through the top of the 3rd inning, while being held scoreless. All of that changed in the bottom of the 3rd inning. After singles by Newton and Amanda, Matt finally got the Weasels on the board with an RBI single. A couple of batters later, with the bases loaded, Azzy got the Weasels back in the game with a 3-run triple to left-center field. The Weasels went on to score a total of 9 runs in the bottom of the 3rd, and 8 more runs in the bottom of the 4th, while holding the Shockers to just a single run the rest of the way. The offensive leaders of the game were Tim and Susan S, both of whom were 2 for 2 (single and double) with a walk. Every Weasel who came to the plate either got a hit or drew a walk at least once. Zook made a couple of tough catches in left-center field to begin the 2nd and 4th innings, and Susan handled some tough throws at second base to record crucial outs. Weasels pitching really came through on a night when it wasn't easy to throw strikes due to the weather. Neil (forced to pitch the first inning because of Chris running late) surrendered just one walk, and Chris walked no one over the remaining 4 innings. Overall it was a team effort both offensively and defensively -- a hard fought and satisfying victory. Both teams were making incredible efforts to secure the win, since the winner of the game would also be winner of the season. Definitely a good way to finish up the season, Weasels! Thanks to Susan S for subbing on extremely short notice (and playing a hell of a game!). Thanks to Justin for playing for Chris in the top of the first inning, since he was running late due to traffic. Thanks to Tony for coming out to cheer. Thanks to Mitch for keeping score.

* - In the first inning they played the first position listed, in the second inning they played the second position listed, and so on.

** - To begin the top of the first inning, Matt was DH (because he was just arriving as the game started), Justin was in LF, Shawn was 3B, and Chris was not in the game (since he was also just arriving as the game started). Before the 6th batter of the inning came to bat, Matt moved from DH to 3B, Shawn moved from 3B to LF, and Justin moved from LF to DH. The rest of the top of the first inning (1 batter) was played this way. Before his spot to bat could come up in the bottom of the first inning, Justin left the game and was replaced by Chris.
