North Berkeley Investment Dolphins, Rockin Robins Prins Chiropractic

The sun was shining. No rain. Blue sky. A perfect day for a softball game. The First Inning, the Dolphins were up, they scored four runs. Kaili was pitching. Four runs, Oh no! Would the Rockin’ Robins be able to catch up?

Bottom of the first, The Rockin’ Robins were up at bat. Glenna was first to bat, but struck out. Second up was Raquel (or “Rocky,” as everyone calls her) she made a base hit. Third up was Tara, who unfortunately was hit by a ball, but fortunately, everybody advanced to the next base. Fourth up was Lena, who made a base hit. Rocky stole third, SAFE! Yelled the Umpire.  Rocky made it to home base, then Tara, then Lena, and then Natalie!

Second Inning, Dolphins were up at bat, but no runs were made! We’re up. Glenna hit the ball, but someone caught the ball. Rocky makes a base hit again! Tara makes a hit! Lena struck out, but Natalie makes a base hit! Rocky makes it to home plate again. Then Tara and Natalie made it too!

Third Inning no runs. The game ended.

The Rockin’ Robin’s celebrated winning by singing their team song: …We’re gonna hit to the outfield, All day long, Cheerin’ and a Yellin’ our Silly ol’ song, All the awesome girls , On ABGSL, On the cool girls yell, ‘Go team Go’, Rockin’ Robin’s, Tweet Tweet Tweet a leat, Rockin’ Robin’s, Tweet Tweet Tweet a leat, Oh the Rockin’ Robin’s, Gonna really gonna hit tonight.”

Strategic Economics Like a Boss 5, Oakland Maroon Boom 2

In inter-league play at the Fielding diamond on Saturday, the Boss defeated a young but tough squad from Oakland.   Imani Hiller-Bateau pitched four impressive innings for the Boss. Talia Rossi started off the scoring by stealing home after reaching second on a double.  The Boss scoring was capped by Amanda Klopp’s RBI single in the fifth. Defensive standout plays included catcher Rosa Rossi-Goldthorpe’s play at the plate in the first to squelch a Boom scoring drive, and Roma Nawy’s impressive nab at first of a Boom scorcher in the fifth.  The Boom showed their own defensive prowess with Alejandra Saavedra’s unassisted double play in the second.
