Match reports from your Captain

Ascot Blue Jays


A big moral booster of a game for the Blue Jays on Thursday 1st May against brand new team the Whiteknights Wolverines.
7 runs for us in the first innings. A 2 base hit for Rob and a good 1st base hit for Rookie Ruth on her softball debut!
Wolverines responded with 2 runs of their own and and unfortunate muscle injury, time for a sub!
2nd innings was an uneventful 0-0 from both teams, but Wolverines' pitcher limped off with an achilles injury...ouch!, resulting in
Mr Gary Green stepping up to the pitcher's mound to up the game!. Even though our captain tried to take him out too, with a swift hit
to the shin!
Good base hitting for pretty much all the team in the 3rd innings, a great 3 base hit for Spyder and Tommy the Helmet finally not being caught
and making base!.
A great 11 runs for the team in the 3rd.
The 4th innings sees another 4 runs for the Jays and the Wolverines not being able to score again.
The 5th was a quick 1,2,3 and out for both teams and the 'Mercy' rule was called at the bottom of the the fifth. Final Score 22-2.
Great play and effort from every Blue Jay involved. Let it continue!
