WhizKids vs. Dodgers 8/6/20


Another typical game between the WhizKids and Dodgers: a close, low scoring affair. Starting pitchers Mike Kane of the Whiz and Mark Denicola of the Dodgers matched zeroes for the first three innings. The Whiz broke the ice with 2 runs in the bottom of the 4th on an error, singles by Greg Mangione and Fred Muller, and a fielder's choice by Bob Holmes. They added another run in the 5th on a double by Gene Hallenbeck, a stolen base, and a wild pitch. The final run of the 4-0 Whiz victory came in the 6th on an error, a walk, and an RBI single by Ed Klopfer. In the meantime, Kane was limiting the Dodgers to 2 hits (a 1-out double to Rick Loffredo in the 3rd, and a 2-out double to Jim Bradley in the 4th), didn't walk a batter, and struck out 4.

Congratulations to Don Ball and the rest of the Dodgers on a good, competitive game.

Jim Porter

And for you score book enthusiasts - in the bottom of the 6th, the Whiz had runners on 2nd and 3rd with one out. The inning ended with a 6 - 2 - 5 - 1 - 5 - 6 double play. No runs scored.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who took the time to think that out ..... short to catcher to 3rd to the pitcher who was covering home then back to third who tagged out the runner who was on third then threw to the shortstop to get the runner who was on second?

That's great to pull something like that off!

Close - short to the catcher to 3rd to the pitcher at the plate back to 3rd who chased the runner and tagged him heading to the plate, back to the SS who was covering 3rd who tagged the runner from 2nd trying to advance.

Well executed pickle play for a bunch of old guys!
