First Team Second Team Honorable Mention C4 | SPORTS THE FREDERICK NEWS-POST | SUNDAY, JUNE 24, 2018 Player of the Year RAEGAN SMITH CATOCTIN JUNIOR INFIELD n A broken right hand in the middle of the season did what opposing pitchers only dreamed of — it prevented Smith from pounding home runs for a prolonged period. But remarkably, she was back in the lineup belting homers in the playoffs, helping the Cougars win their 21st regional title — more than any other MPSSAA softball team — and reach the Class 1A state championship game. In her first at-bat since the injury, a 1A West regional game against Boonsboro, she homered, one of three shots she hit in the postseason. The diligent work she put in with her good hand while being sidelined made her all-the-more ready when she was medically cleared to resume her junior season. n Despite missing 10 games with her injury, Smith led Frederick County with eight home runs, assuming the role as Catoctin’s main slugger folllowing the graduation of Jessi Bryant. She had a team-high batting average of .528 with four doubles, two triples, 30 RBIs and a 1.132 slugging percentage. She continued her hard-hitting ways in Catoctin’s 4-2 loss to Bohemia Manor in the state final, smacking an RBI triple off hard-throwing ace Madison Penta and later scoring to give the Cougars a 2-0 lead. n Aside from swinging a mighty bat, Smith’s defensive versatilty has also benefited the Cougars. After being the starting third baseman as a freshman, she switched to catcher last year when the Cougars needed someone to fill that void. This year, she was back at third base.

    Title: Trouble on the T-Ball Team (Lexile® measure: 190L) Author: Eve Bunting ISBN: 9780395660607 Description: Linda feels left out as the only one on her first-grade T-ball team who hasn’t lost a tooth. Use ordinal numbers first through tenth (Quantile® measure: 200Q) After reading the book with your child, use baseball as a way to discuss order. Use the baseball field to show first, second, and third bases. Discuss how many teeth your child has lost and try to recall which tooth was first, second, third, etc. If your child has not lost any teeth, have your child guess which tooth will be lost first, second, third, and so on. Discuss other things your child does in a specific order. What is the first thing your child does in the morning? What is second? What is third? What is the first thing your child does at school? What is the order of your child’s classes? Which comes first, math class or recess? Other baseball terms can be useful for discussing order. The batting lineup and the sequence of innings can both be used to discuss ordinal numbers. The leadoff hitter is the batter who comes to bat first in each inning. The cleanup hitter in the lineup is the fourth batter. The last batter in the lineup is the ninth batter. There are nine innings in a baseball game. During the seventh inning, there is a break called the seventh inning stretch. .

  • Cincinnati Reds' Top Prospects Can Be Broken Down Into Two Groups: Outfielders and Pitchers
    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings January 14, 2015 CINCINNATI ENQUIRER Aroldis Chapman donation propels MSJ locker room renovation By Shannon Russell / Cincinnati Enquirer / [email protected] There's nothing like having an updated home locker room, and a donation by Reds pitcher Aroldis Chapman ensured just that for Mount St. Joseph's men's volleyball team. The three-month project features 21 custom wood lockers and new flooring. More from MSJ: "This project absolutely could not have been completed without Mr. Chapman's generosity,'' coach Ryan Lengerich said. "He has ties to this program and believes in its mission and commitment to winning on the court, in the classroom and in the community. We are forever grateful and proud to have him as a friend to the program." The Mount building and grounds staff gutted the locker room in October, including removing small metal lockers and a privacy wall, which significantly increased the usable space in the locker room. New ceiling, trim and wall paint was followed by new flooring and custom lockers from JR Customs Unlimited in Hamilton. The locker room is a special place where the athletes celebrate the wins and pick each other up in defeat," Lengerich said. "These student-athletes deserve this locker room. They never asked for it, they only worked hard each day and were thankful for what they had. They are a humble group, and there is no doubt they will treat this locker room with respect and enjoy it." The men's volleyball locker room is provided by the university for use solely by the team.

  • Optimizing Your Lineup by the Book by Sky Kalkman Updated Oct 9, 2012, 12:08Pm EDT
    BEYOND THE BOX SCORE SABERMETRIC PRIMERS THE VERY BEST OF BEYOND THE BOX SCORE 47 Optimizing Your Lineup By The Book By Sky Kalkman Updated Oct 9, 2012, 12:08pm EDT Listen to this article Elsa - Getty Images Bumping this amazing and still-relevant piece by my predecessor/friend/mentor, Sky Kalkman, for the 2012 post-season. It's a great reminder about basic lineup optimization, that it's overrated anyway, and the three and eight holes aren't exactly what you think. I hope you're enjoying it now as much as I did when I first read it. -jbopp As teams begin to pare down their rosters towards the magical 25 number, spring training conversation will shift to debating each team's ideal batting order. Because we care, BtB would like to remind everyone that lineups are pretty overrated. Believe it or not, the difference between an optimized lineup and a typical, mildly foolish one you'll see MLB teams use is only about one win over 162 games. It's obviously worth getting right, but not any more than realizing Troy Percival shouldn't be your closer or Joba Chamberlain belongs in the rotation. That being said, in order to put the best lineup together possible, there are some tips to follow, as Tom Tango, Mitchel Lichtman, and Andy Dolphin showed via extensive research in their book, The Book. By lineup position... Lead-Off The old-school book says to put a speedy guy up top. Power isn't important, and OBP is nice, but comes second to speed.

  • 10 Greatest Extra Inning Wins in Eaton Baseball Postseason History
    10 Greatest Extra Inning Wins in Eaton Baseball Postseason History Greatest Extra Inning Win in History 2001 State Championship At All‐City Stadium in Denver May 19, 2001 Eaton Fightin’ Reds (22‐2) La Junta Tigers (21‐4) Ayers Starting Pitchers Thompson Souther Pitchers of Record Hill Background To have a game known at the nation’s winningest baseball program simply as “The Game” would require epic feats of truly legendary status. This was that game – the 2001 State Title Game. After battling through 7 innings in which each team scored only two runs – with Eaton scoring the tying run in the top of the 7th inning with two outs and two strikes on the batter – the Reds enter the 8th inning with starter Craig Ayers still on the mound, as too was La Junta starter and future 5th round Major League Baseball draft pick Sean Thompson. Extra Inning Summary Ayers had thrown a great game up to that point, now he was prepared to make it a legendary performance. Every pitch from here on out held the Reds’ State Championship hopes with it, as La Junta had the power to hit a single bad pitch out of the yard to end the game as they were the home team. Ayers struck out the leadoff hitter in the 8th inning that then reached base as the ball bounced away, and then took 2nd base on a wild pitch, the Reds intentionally walked their opponent’s top hitter to make it runners on 1st and 2nd base with no outs. Ayers then induced a groundout that 3rd baseman Aaron Kelly threw to 2nd baseman Branden Trujillo to record the first out of the inning.

  • Hillsborough Falls in Northern California 9-10S Championship Game
    FEATURED Hillsborough falls in Northern California 9-10s championship game By Terry Bernal Daily Journal Staff Jul 31, 2017 Updated 5 hrs ago SUTTER — Hillsborough had one last comeback in them. But it wasn’t enough. After falling behind six runs in the first inning, Hillsborough rallied to tie it before a heartbreaking final inning in the Northern California Little League 9-10s All-Star Championship Tournament title game Saturday night at Sutter Baseball Field. River Park of Fresno rallied for four runs in the top of the sixth to score a 10-7 victory to claim the Nor Cal banner, making Hillsborough the runner-up in the second Little League age bracket of 2017. The Hillsborough 10-11s All-Stars also claimed the runner-up station earlier in the week. “I’m so proud of these kids,” Hillsborough manager Ben Coughlin said. “Again we were down early; that’s three nights in a row. And we were running on fumes a little bit … but it gave other kids a chance to step up.” The biggest impact to Hillsborough’s personnel was the loss of one of its best players. A day after injuring his foot — but attempting to play through it Friday in a 4-0 win over River Park to set up Saturday’s winner-take-all “what-if” game — Anakin Manuel was placed on the injured list and was not even able to attend Saturday’s Little League All-Star finale. Not only did Hillsborough lose its No. 3 hitter, Manuel would have been Saturday’s starting pitcher.

  • Building a Batting Order
    Building A Successful Batting Order Nothing kills rallies faster than a weak spot in your lineup. Fastpitch coaches that don’t have the luxury of bringing 4 or 5 power hitters to the plate every time through the lineup need to come up with a different way to manufacture runs and keep the offense in sync. Please keep in mind, that EGFA is a big proponent of developing each girl’s skills and abilities, so these notes are not intended to replace common sense and logic. When coaching a young “developing” team perhaps the best thing to do will be to switch the line-up constantly, thus giving each girl the opportunity to hit in different places in the line-up. While maximizing your line-up can be an important piece of the puzzle, it should never take the place of promoting equal play at the appropriate age and levels. Since you may often think of a line-up having 9 players, you may need to significantly adjust your thinking if you will be batting your full roster, which of course is encouraged and often mandatory in many situations with younger teams and league or tournament play. Please read the following to learn how to identify the strengths and weaknesses of hitters in a lineup, and put together a batting order that will produce runs from top to bottom. Evaluating the Pieces of Your Lineup The first step to putting together a batting order is to know who your players are, and what they do or don’t do well.
