In summary, the Brothers Squared do a Jekyll and Hyde, the Redlegs stake claim as the best in the AL, Blade Sharp kills a winning streak, the PVB old timers find new life and the Knights and U struggle. GDE had the week off. The American League race continues to be nip and tuck, with only one bad series seperating all teams in the conference. Even last place the U could surge to near the top spot with a surge in this week's fast pitch night. Non-conference foe Blade Sharp ended the Legends 10 game winning streak, moving GDE within striking distance while PVB and the Knights are finding success against non-conference foes. The Brothers Squared played lots of wiffleball this week, catching up for vacation time and actually moving a week ahead of the rest of the league. Thanks to the Hill brothers for being so accomodating about their schedule. They allowed Blade Sharp to get back on schedule even though they were playing short handed in doing so. As it was, they had the misfortune of starting with PVB, just as PVB's old hands are rounding into form with their 2nd week back, PVB swept Bx2, behind the solid pitching of Brett Fisher and a solid night by all 3 Fisher brothers at the plate, with Dave leading the trio with 7 HRs and 16 RBIs. Collin Hill led the Bx2 in defeat with 7 RBIs on 6 HRs. Brett Fisher picked up 2 pitching victories.
The Brothers Squared righted their ship on Friday night with a huge 3 game series sweep of conference foe The U, moving them into a virtual tie for 1st place in the conference. Collin Hill again had a huge series crushing 9 HRS with 17 HRS and adding a pitching victory in the closing game. Mallory Rutherford and Cole Murray also added pitching victories in the sweep. The U had a very rough night at the plate with even explosive Brent Hoover only having 4 HRs and 7 RBIs to lead the U. In their final series the Bx2 squared off versus the surging Blade Sharp. Blade Sharp used a balanced attack to win the first 2 games of the series 14-7 and 8-4, with all 4 BS players hitting 4 HRs. In game 3 Bx2 posted a 7-3 win with Collin Hill preserving the victory with a game ending home run robbing web gem of a Money Mike McClary one-handed HR smash. Despite the last inning heroics by Bx2, Blade Sharp had a good night, going 3-3 over all to catch up with the rest of the league schedule and move up in the AL standings 1 place. In their first series they took league leading the Legends down to the wire dropping a 16-14 game on a Ben Cydrus 2 run walk off HR in the bottom of the 5th. Tyler Manion and Eric Young had 3 HRs each in the losing effort, while Mike McClary drove in 7 RBIs in his 1st official game. Ben Cydrus picked up the win for the Legends, adding to his league leading total. Ben also led his team with 3 HRs while Levi Driggs provided 8 RBIs including a huge 3 run shot to put the Legends ahead in the bottom of the 4th. Game 2 of the series was all Blade Sharp as they combined for 10 HRs in cruising to a 13-6 win on TLC. Nathaniel Sprouse and Mike McClary each had 3 HRs in the win while Tyler Manion and Eric Young each had 2. In the rubber game of the series Blade Sharp built a 6-3 lead on J & M heading into the bottom of the 5th. Once again the Legends came from behind as Jerry Driggs led off the inning with a homer, followed by back-to-back hits by Levi and Ben. Phil King then hit a squibber deep down the right field line which spun up the hill allowing the deceptively speedy Ben to roll all the way from 1st to tie the score. With the winning run on 1st and 0, Jerry's line drive cleared the center field fence by mere millimeters and the Legends claimed their 2nd come from behind victory on Jerry's 3 HR of the game, to take the series 2-1. The Redlegs made a major move up the standings this week by posting an impressive series sweep of the ever improving Knights. The Redlegs won a pitching duel in game 1 3-1 behind the solid pitching of Ron Anderson, who also provided the Redlegs only runs on the only HR in the game, a 3 run shot. Game 2 was more wide open, with the Redlegs posting a 14-6 win behind the pitching of Blake Rinehart. Brad Miller was the offensive hero crushing 2 HRs and 6 RBIs in the game. Game 3 was another pitching masterpiece as Brad Miller pitched a complete game shut out, one of the rarest feats in COWL. The Redlegs blanked the Knights 5-0 to sweep the series. Once the Knights figure out how to score runs they will be a dangerous opponent as they are very stingy in the field.
Week 5 is the first fast pitch week of the year. All teams will play 1 fast pitch game with every other team in the league, half this week and half in week 2 at the end of the year. All slow pitch games scheduled in the 1st half must be played before the fast pitch nights or the will be considered forfeits for the team not able to play on the regular scheduled nights. The fast pitch rules are posted on the main COWL stats page. Please note that this is not unlimited fast pitch as seen on YouTube videos. The balls used in those tournaments are scuffed with sand paper to get them to move so dramatically. Our version of fast pitch is considered pitch-to-hit speed, with movement and location emphasized, and not speed. Teams may request pitches be slowed down if they are too fast, although 35 mph is permissible. At that speed, batters will not be shocked by how fast pitches approach.
Secondly, note that yellow stick official bats may be altered as desired. They can be stuffed, filled, painted, sanded, taped, whatever. As long as it is still an official Wiffle bat as the base it is ok.
