bluebird mom Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 That has to be the highest profile kid to play for Walt in quite a while. Patrick Maronde is the brother of Nick Maronde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WebGems37 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 It is Maronde's little brother (class of 2010) as I understand, not the draft pick. By the way, IMO there is nothing wrong, or to be considered strange or criticized, about bunting, moving runners, and playing to win, even is summer ball. Go to a college game or two and you will understand the value college coaches place on such skills as the sacrifice bunt, hitting behind runners, and generally playing the game the right way. As is often said by players and coaches at the next level, "do your job." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As is often said by players and coaches at the next level, "do your job." Very, and I mean very few teams have their kids bunt to win baseball games in regular season summer games (except when they are playing in tournaments). I would guess that I didn't see more than two bunts in all of last year regular season, being put down to sac runners along. Just didn't see it happen in the summer leagues regular season games like you see it happen in HS ball, and it surprised me seeing it happen yesterday. And BTW I see it happen for a HS coach who I think bunts (sac) runners along more so than any other coach in NKy and he bunts so much so, that the other teams know it, the fans know it and even the umpires know it, that if the first runner in a inning gets on, the second batter will be bunting him over no matter what spot in the order he is hitting from.

Diamond Dandy Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Enjoyed the afternoon too TOG....It's geeat to watch the local tallent playing the game they love. Young Mr. Darner might be able to help Coach K out on the hill next year. If he developes a curve ball or change, he will be hard to hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theoldguy Posted June 8, 2008 Author Share Posted June 8, 2008 The Colonels and the Riverbats hooked up together for an old fashion good old day's baseball game, that took nine innings to end. Mike Sullivan with two men on and two outs comes through big time, with a shot down the third base line to win and end the game in the Ky. Colonels favor. Both teams gave up two unearned runs in this game. The Colonels gave theirs up in the first innings and the Riverbats gave up theirs in the third but after that, it was a good old pitching duel. Both team made some fine defensive plays throughout the game and both team pitchers did a great job. Ky. Colonels Pitching Paul Uhl 76 pitches 6 complete innings 23 PA 3 hits 2 runs 0 earned runs 2 walks 2 K's Brad Krohman 41 pitches 3 complete innings PA 10 1 hit 0 runs 0 earned runs 0 walks 2 K's Colonels hitters 4 PA 1 run 2 hits 2 K's and 1 sb Elliott 4 PA 1 hit 1 walk reached base via E-4 Maddox 4 PA and 1 K Maile 4 PA 2 hits and 2 K's Isler 4 PA 1 K and 1 hbp Adams 4 PA 1 run 1 hit double and 1 K Nichols 4 PA 1 run 1 hit double 1 K 1 sb and reached base via E-2 Nutini 3 PA and 1 walk Hitchcock 1 PA and 1 walk Holocher 3 PA 1 hit 1 rbi and 1 K Sullivan 1 PA and 1 K Darner 3 PA 1 run 1 hit double and sb Maddox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
