My wife makes fun of my spelling, my grammer and my overall writing skills. She can, she writes for a living. But the title is not a typo. Joe and Tom Carey combined for an almost shutout last night against the Woodinville Wave. Joe started and threw four scoreless innings, and Tom completed the last three innings, surrendering a run with an 7-0 score to for an easier out. Had we needed to shut them out, Tom could have, but he chose the smart play over the shut out.
Joe was masterful in his pitching and his moves to first. In the second he gave up back to back singles, and picked both runners off as soon as they reached first. I guess he is no longer reluctant to use his magic move to first.
Tom also pitched with ease and breezed through his three innings.
We are still waiting for the offensive explosion that I know is coming. Last night MBC struck for three runs in the second and four runs in the sixth, but we have yet to start pummeling the ball.
In the second Landon Fletcher reached on an error and after a single by Jackson Hirch and a walk to Joe Eskenazi, Eddie Lane laced a beautiful single to right to score two. The third run scored on a ground out by Arthur Lane.
Jake Welch led off the sixth with a walk and after a single by Guthrie Morrison and two walks to Tom Carey and Cole Burcham, MBC was in business again. Landon singled home two runs and the final run scored on a clutch two out single by Joe Eskenazi.

Nicely written, coach. Who says I make fun of your writing skills? You're giving me a bad rap.
