First Grade match report – Round 4 Game 1 – Vikings vs Baulkham Hills.

Vikings Win 4-2

The Vikings won 4-2 in a great game against Baulkham Hills on Sunday. It was a great team effort for the Vikings to pick up the win in a close game.

Once again our pitching staff kept us in the game, Tim Stanford threw 3ip 3h 2k 2bb 1er to get us off to a great start then Josh Wells made his best outing of the season so far 2ip 1h 0bb 0er a great outing from Josh, Gavin D’Loughy threw a solid 2ip 0h 1k 0bb 0er and Michael McClellan shut down Baulko to end the game 2ip 2h 1k 1bb 0er. Corey Barnes and Shane O’Connor made some outstanding defensive plays to help out the pitching staff, Corey’s 9th inning diving catch was the best catch of the season so far.

The Vikings hit well considering they faced some good pitching in former MLB pitcher and current Sydney Blue Sox closer Koo Dae Sung, they managed to score 3 of the 4 runs while Koo was on the mound. Trent D’Antonio continued his great start to the season 2-4 2rbi, Mark Holland 2-4 1rbi 1sb, Joel Southam 1-2 1bb 1hbp 1r, Corey Barns 1-4 2r 1bb 1sb, Rowan Nicol 1-4 1sb, Alex Rogers 1-4 and Guy Edmonds 1-4
