The game scheduled for May 6th has been cancelled.  No make up date has been announced.

Tonight’s game against BOAZ has been postponed due to rain. The rescheduled date is still TBD.

MWball has just learned that Jeff Mick is scheduled for an MRI on his knee after suffering from year long pain.  The pain was first on record here and can be read about in the comments section of this post.  It is undetermined as to why the delay in checking on this injury.

More to come as updates become available.

The 2009 March Westin softball season is fastly approaching and team MW is looking ready.  After numerous practices the team appears to be ahead of where they were last year. 

New additions to the summer March Westin team include Shawn Cosner and Cody Smarr.  Both bring power and speed to an already potent lineup.

Shawn has played with March Westin before in the Fall league and looks to bring his skills to the summer team. 

Cody is a new comer to the team who comes with lofty expectations as he was once Mr. Kanawha County Baseball (at least that is the rumor).  Let’s just hope that that nickname doesn’t turn into “Mr. K”.

The schedule will be released on Friday, April 24th.

March Westin swept the double header last evening against Team Budweiser by scores of 14-4 and 20-9.

March Westin was forced to play both games with only 9 DEDICATED people.  Mark and Shawn patrolled the outfield and kept the run scoring at a minimum.  Tom managed right field all night long, playing perfect defense on the one fly ball that was hit to him. 

It is rumored that disciplinary action will be enforced against those who did not attend. 

March Westin takes the field again on Monday, September 29th at 6 and 7 on Liberatore against John Howard.

March Westin defeated MR Trophies in the first double-header of the fall season, winning both games with a score of 18-0 and 12-2.

MW will take the field again on Wednesday, September 24th at 6 and 7 against Team Budweiser on Whiston Field.

Updated Standings as of 08/03/08

As evident by the recent posts you can see that we are way behind our game posts.  It is just not as easy when we lose a few games to write about it.  However, a deeper look into the very brief posts will reveal a much bigger problem.  Do you see it?  I’ll give you a few minutes to find it, K?

…..

Did you see it?  More time?

K.

That’s right.  The rapidly increasing number of strikeouts.  What the heck is going on?  Is the long season finally taking its toll and wearing down the athletes of March Westin?  Let us hope not. 

The post season is rapidly approaching and it appears that March Westin has at least secured a playoff birth.  The seeding remains to be determined but a victory Wednesday night should do nothing but increase both the seeding and team morale for March Westin.  A huge victory (26 runs) against #1 Touchdown hopefully allowed MW to find their swing and get back to their winning ways. 

March Westin will take the field Wednesday, August 6th at 9 on Liberatore field.  A victory would be an excellent way to go into the playoffs so let’s go out there and hit the ball!  K?

MW defeated #1 Touchdown by a score of 26-5.

Scott struck out this game.

MW lost to Helfin Insurance by a score of 8-5.

Jared struck out this game.
