  • Chieftains Drop Opener the Riverdale Varsity Baseball Team Dropped
    Chieftains Drop Opener The Riverdale Varsity baseball team dropped their season opener on Friday Night to Wisconsin Heights by the score of 8-7. The Vanguards have a very experienced team with 8-starters back from last year’s sectional team and had a line-up of very good hitters. Coach Thompson “Heights has a very nice team with very good quickness and some very fine hitters. I thought over all we played decently for our first time out and we will improve greatly as the season progresses.” To open the 2016 season the first two Chieftains were retired but three straight walks would load the bases but unfortunately we would not score. In the bottom of the inning freshmen Michael Schaefer would take to the hill in his first varsity start. The first two WH hitters would reach on a hit batsman and a walk. Michael would then strike out the next hitter. However a base hit to right would plate a run and it was 1-0. Trying to limit the damage we would strike out the next hitter. Then with two outs we would K the next hitter but on the play the ball would get away from us and we would see two runs come in. Coach Thompson “Bad break there but things happen. I would be surprised to see that happen again this season.” Michael would escape further damage by striking out the next WH hitter. We would bounce right back in the top of the second. DH Drake Harris would lead off with a walk.

    SEATTLE MARINERS NEWS CLIPS July 5, 2011 Who doesn't like sunny days? M's third baseman Kennedy LARRY LARUE; Staff writer Published: 07/05/1112:05 am The Tacoma News Tribune OAKLAND - When the pop fly went up, third baseman Adam Kennedy moved 10 feet into foul territory and froze like a statue – his glove up, waiting – until the ball plunked down behind him. “I saw it at its height, maybe for an instant on the way down,” the Seattle Mariners infielder said. “When it went into the sun and didn’t come out, there’s really nothing you can do.” As he stood there, did it occur to Kennedy the ball might hit him in the head? “You know it’s a possibility,” he said. An inning later, Oakland’s Jemile Weeks popped one up into foul territory near the stands, and Kennedy took off after it. Sort of. “I saw it off the bat, then it was gone, and I ran toward where I thought it would come down,” he said. It landed near his feet and bounced into the stands. “The fans seemed to enjoy it,” Kennedy said. He couldn’t recall ever completely losing an infield pop fly, and in two innings Monday lost two. “I told (shortstop) Brendan Ryan to get to anything he could, because he had a better angle with the sun, and he caught a couple,” manager Eric Wedge said. “I’ve managed enough games here to know, at a certain time of day, in a certain time of the year, balls just disappear over there.” WORK DAY Wedge called center fielder Franklin Gutierrez into his office for a morning chat , trying to help him take a little stress out of his life.
