Americans Defeat Red Stockings 8-2 and Win Hobbs Championship

June 24, 2010
The Red Stockings went to school on Tuesday night, the school of how to hit the baseball with runners in scoring position. If the Red Stockings were graded in the playoffs, they would score A- for pitching and D+ for hitting. The Red Stockings had chances during the playoffs to break games wide open but failed to capitalize on opportunities. The Red Stockings manufactured two runs early in the game to take a 2-0 lead into the 3rd inning. The Americans tied the game at 2-2 and then took the Red Stockings to school scoring 3 runs in the 4th & 5th innings to take the lead for good at 8-2. The Stockings pitcher Shane Romine pitched solid, but the Americans came through when it counted. John Verschoor came on and pitched the 6th inning and struck out two, gave up 1 hit and No runs. Bruce Harney who started to get hot in the playoffs, had a lead off double in the 4th inning and was left stranded at second base. It seemed to be the theme for the Red Stockings throughout the playoffs and eventually did them in.

Next up for the Red Stockings. Selected Red Stocking players will be selected to the Hobbs All-Star team which will play the Palm Bay Americans Tuesday night June 30th in celebration of the Americans & Brevard County Baseball League's 30th year Anniversary. They will also play the Stan Musial All-Stars on Saturday July 25th and both games will be played at Space Coast Stadium.
