ML Game 11

Baker Printing   6
Moppert Brothers   3

Baker Printing battled Moppert Brothers in a tough well fought game that featured 3 home runs, excellent pitching and solid defense.  Newcomer Emanual Chuckran took the mound for Moppert and held the top of the Baker order to no runs in the first inning.  Chuckran led off the bottom of the 1st by crushing a hanging curveball thrown by Brian Virbitsky over the left center field fence.   Virbitsky settled in and retired the side with 3 strike outs.  After a scoreless 2nd inning, Baker took the lead with 2 unearned runs.  Moppert quickly struck back thanks to a solo home run by Anthony Covello.  In the 4th inning, Brian Virbitsky returned the favor with a 2 run home run to give Baker a 4-2 advantage.  Mopperts got closer with an RBI single by Chuckran to make it 4-3 after 4 innings.  Baker put the game away in the 6th inning thanks to a 2 run single by Kevin Smith.  Smith then came into close out the game on the mound with 2 strike outs and a ground out.  Jack Ryder picked up 2 hits for Baker and played very well behind the dish only allowing 1 passed ball.

Baker improves their record to 4-0 on the season while Moppert falls to 1-3.
