Hurtin' Units win 18-5
Team Record- 2-1-0
Coventry Park-In this game the Hurtin' Units were up against one of the newest teams in the league. This season 2 new teams and 4 new captains were welcomed into the TOT league. The new captains are not new to the league, but they are new as captains. The two new teams are the Bat Flippers, captained by Kevin (Radar)B. and Kevin (Clouch)C. And the Tottenham Twisters of New Tecumseth, captained by Jimmy S. and Geoff K.
Kevin
C. (Flippers) is a Hurtin' Units Alumni. Kevin played for the Hurtin' Units in 2014. The season Kevin played
with the Units was not a very good season. We finished the season
with a 3-18-2 record. A tough season to be sure, but we still had
fun.
I
was looking at the Flippers roster, prior to the game, and I saw that
there are 3 other players that once dawned the Hurtin' Units jersey.
Bill C. played in the same season as Kevin, Clayton A. has actually
played 3 times with the Units and Ricky G. played in 2014.
I guess if you play a few years in this league, you can look across the diamond,
into the opponents dugout, there will probably be someone you played
with in the past. This season the Units did not draft a single former
player.
The
weather for this game was perfect for baseball. The temperature was
hovering around 15 degrees, there was a soft breeze and overcast
skies.
At
game time we had 11 players dressed in Kelly Green ready to take on
the Flippers. The only missing player was Ryan M.

The game started off similar to our game against the Inglorious Batsters, where we got down early. We were not down as many runs in this game, but it was still is a little concerning to get down to a team that had not lost a game this season. The Flippers got off to a good start scoring 3 runs in the first inning, and 2 runs in the second inning. The Units countered with 2 runs in the first inning. The score after 2 complete inning was Bat Flippers 5, Hurtin' Units 2.
It
was in the third inning, the Units began to take over the game. The
Units offense would shift into high gear and score in every inning
for the rest of the game. The Units defense would also step it up, and
shut the Flippers down, not allowing another run to score the final
score 18-5 for the Units.
The Hurtin' Units played a solid game both defensively and offensively to improve to a record of 2-1-0. Good game Units.
