PR 3 UWA 7 def Kelmscott 3
PR3's played Kelmscott at their home cow paddock and won a close game 7-3 after scoring 3 runs in the final dig. Their second ground was a joke with Shaun Major disappearing from view for several seconds when he fell into a large hole trying to steal second. Shaun survived getting picked off as they weren't quite sure where he was until he emerged near 2nd base.
Jeremy Faux pitched the whole game for 11 strikeouts and 5 walks, with only one earned run ..from a girl's hit mind you. They had some good young pitchers throwing quick stuff, and got 5 solid hits to our 3 scattered ones for the whole game. Two of their hits came from girls... one of whom had a beard... but nice tits... Confusing feelings with our young guys! I don't think anyone in the top half of our batting line up got a hit, but we got more walks than Kelmscott. With guys on base, easy steals (look out for the hole!) and lots of pass balls, we just scored more than them by the end of the game.
We therefore managed to win by having more disciplined batting, albeit with some interesting base running demonstrations. Looking forward to playing back in civilisation next week with a renewed appreciation of our Mcgilivray groundsman. Thank you Jeremy for a gutsy 135-pitch winning game... (Even though those "women" hit your good stuff out of the ground). Jeff & Mark Wall, Max Alveiro, Matthew and Chris all contributed to a good away win. There's Lots more to learn however..
