Game Summary
The Superbas made a valiant effort but ultimately fell short in a 21-9 loss to the Ball Outs on a frigid Tuesday evening that scared off many of the cougar fans. The Superbas banged out fifteen hits in the losing effort.
The hits keep coming for outfielder Tim Evans. Evans was a single shy of the cycle as he doubled, tripled and homered in his three plate appearances with 4 runs batted-in and 3 runs scored. Second baseman Brooks Ramsdell added two singles and two runs scored. Shortstop Jeff Wisniewski was 3 for 3 with two runs scored. Leftfielder Chris Leo and first baseman Dyelan Grace each had 2 runs batted-in.
Excellent defensive play was highlighted by Ramsdell who took several hard grounders to the chest. Following the game, Ramsdell was asked about his play and the second baseman replied nonchalantly as he rubbed his pectoralis major, “That is what you’re supposed to do.” Evans shined in left-center with several outstanding plays.
Designated hitter B.H. Bronson Johnson struck out swinging in the third and struck out looking in the fifth.
Defensive Player of the Game: Brooks Ramsdell.
Offensive Player of the Game: Tim Evans (3-3, 2B, 3B, HR, 3 R, 4 RBI).
