BB: LEC: Little East Conference

[ecfaninri]

Don't know how Southern Maine made out in their first game but Farmingdale dropped 8 runs on them in the first inning in the second game. Schmidt probably just needed to get some rust off from the long winter. I don't expect him to only last 1/3 of an inning too often.

Keene State wins first 17-4 behind freshmen pitcher Jeff Pelkey and OF Cody Callahan(8 RBI's)

Hey Boys,

Nice to see the teams of the LEC are doing quite well in their preseason games. I just returned from sunny Florida to a somewhat decent day here in MA (40 degrees). The boys of RIC definetely had a good week down there, 7-1 is a pretty good start. Although they did lose to Cortland in a nail biter 5-4. We saw some positives and of course some negatives up there, that I'm sure the coaching staff will be working on for the upcoming big battles. Like I said in an earlier post they will be a contender this season as in most seasons. I'm not saying they will dominate their opponents but they definetely will give them a run for their money. Hope alls well.

  Down 12-6 Ksc ties it 12-12 in the bottom of the 9th. TCNJ walks Chevy and Patnode to pitch to Doyon with bases loaded one out. Doyon strikes out. Diprato gounds out. What an adventure!!!

ecfaninri,

Word and word jr, WNEC once again sent Calzone to the mound vs Wheaton! I think I have seen him pitch against the Lyons 4 times.

The Lyons put some timely hitting with some DPs to take an 8-0 lead and held on for an 8-2 win. Young Dan Haugh crush another bomb, his 4th of the spring, and Paul Malaguti also went yard to lead the 10 hit attack. Twin bill tomorrow will determine whether this was a great trip or just a good one.

Grand Funk Railroad, some great songs, let me ponder this, cause I do like to eat, especially when others pay.

Quite a day for the Owls yesterday.  A real mixed bag.  The young pitching very effective in game one, quite a bit less so in game 2.  Same with the defense, errorless in game one, 4 costly miscues in the second game.  The only constant for the day was the offense, which was very impressive, and may even be better than last year- but time will tell on that.

Left fielder/DH Cody Callahan had a monster day.  He and 3 hitter Keith Patenode both have that sweet swing that it seems only lefties can have.  The Owls pounded out somewhere arounf 39-40 hits on the day.  Should win 2 with that kind of output, but 14 walks, 4 errors and a hit batter add a lot of runs for your opponent. 

Really exciting ninth inning rally in game 2 to tie it at 12, after being down by six going in.  A lot of big hits, none bigger than a bases loaded triple that was smoked over the center fielder's head by the most underrated player in the Little East, Jeff Perkins.  As was mentioned, TCNJ intentionally walked Chevy and Patnode to load the bases.  Looked real good at that moment for a sweep, but, .......

Temps going up to upper 80's today.  Gotta sign off now.  Have to stop on the way to the game to pick up some suntan lotion.

KSCER- will give everone your regards!!

UMB was beat twice yesterday by the defending national Champs trinity. The Young pitching just didnt show up once again. They were up 2-1 in the first game in the fifth inning let up a big 7 run inning. In the second game tied 1-1 after one end up going down 13-1 after 3. They made a very strong come back in game 2 to make it 13-11 and they had the bases loaded with 2 outs but ended up hitting a long fly ball to right to end the game.

So lets see again if the young pitching shows up. They need a win very bad today vs. anderson.

KSC defeated Brockport 13-4 (I think that was the final).

Cody Callahan had 2 more HRs and 5 RBI to go with his 5 hits, HR, 3 Dbls and 9 RBI in yesterday's games.

WoW and just a freshman.

1-7 in the order may well be the best in New England! Word did ya'll say New England??? You meant New Hampshire, right??? Nope, I will put the Owls 1-7 up against any othe 1-7 in NE. Hear me now and believ me later girly men.

Game 2 just started here is the link....
