Sheffield Bladerunners II 1 - 23 Sheffield Cubs Line-Up :
CF , C C. Goodwin, P L. Brown, 1B , SS , 2B , LF , RF , 3B Game Summary-
A rough first start to the new 2021 season for the Sheffield Bladerunners team II. Losing 23-1 to the Sheffield Cubs is tough but a huge learning curve for everyone. Luke Brown our starting pitcher gave the cubs a first few innings they weren’t expecting. Luke tired due to the scorching heat and Paul Cassidy took the reigns from him and pitched even more heat. Multiple strikeouts were recorded for both pitchers for the first time this season. It was our turn to bat and saw many base hits and get our offence into a flow. We also saw an amazing hit from Emily. The catcher Charlie Goodwin had to retire due to immense heat and Keenan Brookes took over the throne behind home plate to finish the game off. |

Game 2 after a well deserved lunch break and trying to recover from the 27 degree heat. Starting the Bladerunners off was Stuart throwing strikes which followed with strikeouts. The Cubs also had a strong at bat to reply to Stuart and their 3rd baseman, Fesreira, hit a huge home run. Heads of the Bladerunners went down also with their hopes and tiring players needed to be changed. Players played new positions never played before by Sheffield, everyone learned from the game but the score did not reflect our positivity and resilience that was showed, the Cubs ending in 31-1 |
