The 2018 SLAM Softball Season for Spector Group starts with a Victory!
Like the much anticipated Avengers-Infinity War movie I saw this past weekend, Team Spector Group didn't disappoint in it's first game of the season. After 2 rain outs, Spector Group couldn't wait to get on the field to start the season. We were a bit rusty and the slow start showed in the first few innings of the game as Team Spector Group couldn't get off the right foot by allowing 3 quick runs to Team RRA/DBB. The Bats were a bit sluggish for this potent high octane offense as well.......
Things were looking gloomy till Ed "I am Groot" Baust led off the 4th inning with a towering triple to get it started. Next to bat was SG's top off season acquisition Norman "Da Spiderman" Ha when he slammed an RBI double to right field. The following ensuing play was a sac RBI where Norman "Da Spiderman" Ha was running so fast to home that he had to scale the chain-link backstop to prevent himself from running through it and tied the game 3-3. THE CROWD OF 4 PEOPLE WENT WILD!!! Team Spector Group answered with 5 unanswered runs to end the game.
With his precision pin-point arc pitches.......The Superhero of the game and game ball goes to Jared "Hawkeye" Morganstein with 6 shut out innings backed by a solid error free game from the defense lead by 2017 Golden Glove winner - Joe "Hammering Thor" Carretta (1-1 (2 RBIs, 1Run)) who was responsible for 2 inning ending double plays. Great all around game by all.
Final Score 5-3 in favor of Spector Group. Hats off to RRA/DBB for a great game and good luck on the rest of the season.
