We played an outstanding season opener last night against Chubb. It was a very tight game, both teams providing a solid defense. Chubb edged us slightly to get the 15-8 win. With the coaching staff getting their first look at the team, they all agreed this will be a great season for Marsh.
Marsh was able to hold Chubb to no runs in the top of the first inning. Alex Blair-Johns led the team off at the plate followed by Water Lok, each hitting a single. Tamara Berlana opened the scoring for Marsh, hitting a single to bring in Alex.
Marsh continued with a tight defensive game thanks to Graham Harvey’s TSN Highlight Wheel catch in center field. He was awarded the game MVP, but it was immediately revoked after his third base coaching woes of waving Victor Dhir to second base where he was tagged out by the waiting Chubb second basemen.
Other honorable mentions:
-Michael Parwicki for his two MONSTER home runs!
-Karen Lam for going 3 for 4 at the plate with 1 RBI (and for capturing the night on camera – pictures to be posted!)
-The batting trio of Mary Dalisay, Terry Kida and Harry Huynh (more formally known as Mary, Terry & Harry)
-The out-fielding duo of Kristina Uslinova and Graham Harvey for making a routine fly ball catch look spectacular – Kristina making the initial catch, the ball popping out of her glove and Graham providing the back up glove to pick up the remainder!
-Victor Dhir for his huge opposite field triple hit! This time the base coaches provided him with the correct signals!
Marsh looks forward to their next game against AIG on Thursday May 22nd at 7:00pm at Coronation Park. The schedule was changed. We are not off next week. Our Wednesday May 28th game is moved to next Thursday night.
