Roxbury Nine

1864

W 8-3

Atlantic hosted a 3-team round-robin this week with the Newtown Sandy Hooks and the Roxbury Nine. The first 1864 match featured the revenge-seeking Sandy Hooks against the Atlantics, who had taken both games from them last week. The Sandy Hooks jumped out on top with a 5-run first inning, held Atlantic to 2 runs in its first, then added 3 more in the second to take an 8-2 lead. They added a run in the 5th, now leading 9-2 going into the bottom of the 5th.

Atlantic then turned on the offense, and the defense, as they scored in every inning to draw to a 9-9 tie, while holding the Sandy Hooks scoreless. Atlantic then loaded the bases in the bottom of the 9th and with 2 hands down, Dreambucket delivered a single to score Nice & Easy from third with the winning run for a 10-9 triumph. Toothpick and Shakespeare both went 5 for 5 to lead Atlantic, and Dreambucket went 3 for 3 with 2 walks. Hammy went the distance to pick up his team-leading 6th win of the season.

The second match saw the Sandy Hooks pummel Roxbury 21-10 in an 1898 match.

In the third match, Atlantic defeated Roxbury 8-3 in another 1864 game. Nice & Easy gave up a single run in the 3rd inning, then 2 more in the 6th, but whitewashed Roxbury the other 7 innings to gain the victory in his first pitching appearance of the season. The hitting attack was shared by Toothpick, TC, Dreambucket, and Nice & Easy, each contributing 2 hits.
