Another win for the Muckdogs, beating the Rockhounds 29-12. Mr. B. had two good hits and two good defensive plays in right field, one of them an outstanding save of what could have been a Rockhound home run. So now we wait to see where the Muckdogs stand in the rankings, having dethroned No. 1.

Muckdogs beat the Express 18 to 14 on a chilly day with a cold wind. Mr. B. had two hits and a good defensive out at third base. But tomorrow’s the big one, playing the No. 1 Rockhounds.

Mr. Boy got three hits and two runs in this afternoon’s 25-13 victory over the Rivercats. The Muckdogs are 5-1 for the season now, but have two more games this weekend–one tomorrow and one on Sunday. Mr. B.’s three hits were a double and two singles, and he drove in runs each time. But if the other team had been good at fielding, he’d likely have been out on the singles. The Rivercats just turned out to be worse hitters than the Muckdogs. Neither shined on the field. They have progressed a little. I no longer see them run for cover when a pop fly is falling their way. Now they tend to stick their gloves out, while cringing off to one side. Only rarely, of course, the ball falls in the glove. But these are 7 and 8 year olds.
