HHS Pandemics vs. ONDCP Drug Lords

It was another victorious night for the Pandemics! The ONDCP Drug Lords were intimidated by the mighty Pandemics and only showed with a few of their players. However, the Pandemics came with a roster large enough to almost field two teams so we organized a scrimmage and had a great game.

I was impressed by the power of the Pandemics’ bats last night. Home Runs were hit by Bill Fleischer, Drew Smith, Ray Sass, Caleb Crosby, and Michael Banyas (I probably missed some), and most of these players hit more than one. Kaleena White was also impressive at the bat and in the field. Kaleena batted 5 times, getting on base on 4 of those occasions. She also made an incredible play at first base. A grounder was hit by the coach of ONDCP, picked up and thrown to Kaleena at first base. The ball got to Kaleena the same time the runner was approaching the base. Kaleena stuck her glove out, caught the ball, and was then hit (accidentally) by the runner and she managed to hold on to the ball! It was a great play. We got revenge on the offending coach when he was run over at home plate by one of our players after hitting a home run. I think it was Holly Kilness or Sery Kim that ran him over. Lesson learned: Don’t mess with the Pandemics.

We also played some great Defense. Bill Fleischer was outstanding in left field running down balls like a golden retriever. (except that he would catch them) Drew Smith even had a lucky running catch in center after someone cranked a deep ball that should have gone over his head. I’m still mad about that one Drew.

It was a great night and lots of fun. I have attached a few pictures from our first two games.

NEXT GAME: Commerce Carlito's Way vs. The Pandemics next Wednesday @ Haines Point.
Thank you to all who came out, we had tons of fun and our team looks really strong!

Let’s keep up the energy!

GO PANDEMICS!!
