TRILLIBUM<\/strong>–\u00a0 The SweatSox surged back to a winning record Friday night with a decisive 10-3 victory over the Coyotes at Trillium, lifting them to 5-4 on the season. This game, originally handpicked by Commissioner Bill Beelen to kick off the 2024 NCBL season (Game #1 on the Master Schedule), was delayed due to field issues, but the SweatSox made up for lost time with an electric performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The game\u2019s momentum swung in the second inning when the SweatSox turned a brilliant 6-4-3 double play. The smooth fieldwork ignited the team\u2019s energy, setting the tone for a defensive and offensive masterclass that saw contributions across the lineup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cory Bond, dubbed the \u201cGreatest Lefty Ever\u201d in the SweatSox ranks, took the mound as the emergency starter and dominated with four no-hit innings. GLE allowed just three walks and one earned run, flirting with perfection in the third inning when he nearly achieved the SweatSox’ first ever immaculate inning, striking out three Coyotes on just 11 pitches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eric White came in for the final three innings, securing the save and helping lock down the win. Despite losing the combined no-hitter with a seventh-inning single from Coyotes hitter Tristan Haman, White\u2019s strong relief kept the Coyotes’ offense in check.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a total team effort at the plate for the SweatSox, who racked up 10 runs in a dominant display. The (extended) top of the order\u2014Jaspreet Sanghra, Nick Henderson, and Eric White\u2014combined for an impressive eight runs, while the heart of the order delivered six RBIs, thanks to clutch hitting by Trevor Williams, Steve Brown, Mike Pignat, and Larry Pawelek. Andrew Hierlihy, Phil Leduc, and Craig Cornell were also present and rounded out our batting lineup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Larry Pawelek made his biggest mark on the game with stellar defense, setting a franchise record by assisting on two<\/strong> 3-1 putouts\u2014earning him the honor of Defensive Player of the Game for making what is often considered one of the toughest outs in (SweatSox) baseball, look easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cory Bond, stepping in on short notice to give White an extra hour of rest, was named the Sweatiest Player of the Game. Bond overcame a lingering inner-ear crystal issue to retire the last 11 Coyotes he faced, embodying grit and resilience on the mound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SweatSox will look to keep the momentum rolling as they take on the Bats on Monday, back at Trillium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RANDOM HISTORICAL NOTE:<\/strong> On May 9, 2008, the SweatSox held a practice at McCarthy.\u00a0 This practice was 3 days after a preseason game where Cory Bond hit a monster HR off Diamondback Dave Steffler, and where a wayward foul ball smashed through my rear windshield.\u00a0 Most notably: It was at this McCarthy practice where Josh Ramage nearly collided with Mark Dorrington in the outfield during BP, allegedly.<\/p>\n\n\n
