Game Summary
The Superbas opened the fall season with a disastrous loss to the Muckrackers, 13-2, in the early game at the Concord municipal fields. One bright note for the young season is the Superbas defense looks much improved.
Brooks Ramsdell pitched a gem, including slaving through the second-half of the game with a bruised thumb after a hard line drive caromed off the studly pitcher. Outfielder Tim Evans made several great catches, but his dirty mouth got him a warning from the umps. Second baseman Andy Orr and shorstop Tony Barsotti played well up the middle, and outfielders James Loden, Jesus Espinoza and Greg Sailor played solid.
The Superbas struggled at the plate, registering only ten hits. Ramsdell had two singles and an RBI, and also drew a walk. First baseman Jade Phillips had an RBI single. Outfielder Jesus Espinoza added two singles.
Defensive Players of the Game: Tim Evans and Brooks Ramsdell.
Offensive Players of the Game: Brooks Ramsdell (2-2, BB, RBI) and Jesus Espinoza (2-2).
