Ducks split double header 1-1. Run differential: 20 scored / 20 allowed. Sweet photos taken in retro jerseys. Swetz has one up on his Instagram. Moore can’t remember his Instagram password so he can’t really get a good look at it. Pending make-up with the Wo!fpack, next stop post-season. Quack.
Seen last summer heading up the Allegheny River, scientists fear a new evolution of monster ducks may supplant all other animals in the global food chain.
Nature artist’s realistic recreation of what a duck vs. lion matchup would look like in the wild.
ESPECIALLY, fundamentally sound baseball squads. Better call Ciccone! Anthony Ciccone & Associates.

The South Oakland Ducks of the North Side defeated the Senators 10-6 (as confirmed by the scorebook) Saturday afternoon in North Park. The win brings the Ducks (9-3) back into a tie for first with the WOLFPACK!!! and keeps South Oakland a game ahead of North America. The Senators dropped to 3-8.
The Ducks struck first in the top of the second. After the Sens recorded two quick outs, their starting pitcher walked the ducks 7,8,9 hitters, before Gwin singled in two.
Then Senators took a 4-2 lead in the bottom half of the inning as Matt Swetz struggled with his command. Swetz finished with 2Ks in 1 2/3 IP, and allowed only one hit. There were many walks, and some errors.
The Ducks tied the game in the third when Strom singled in Culp.
Then the Senators went ahead 5-3 after three, but South Oakland scored three in the top of the fourth when Moore singled past a drawn-in infield, then Limbach hit an RBI fielder’s choice to first, before Culp a two-run triple. Culp finished 1-for-1 with a triple, 3 walks, and 2RBI.
The Senators put in a reliever at some point. The Ducks added four in the top of the sixth. Dover hit a two-run double that one-hopped the fence in left. I’ve never seen a ball hit that far at Pie Trayor. Riley drove in a run with a ground out to first.
Strom was robbed of extra bases. for the final out of the inning.
Ben Hartranft suffered an upper body injury making a diving attempt at a single in the third inning. Hartranft finished 1-for-2 with a walk and an RBI.
One of the Senators players blew hit knee out, then almost singled on one leg in the second inning, but was thrown out at first in a 9-1-3 putout. I think that’s the first time we’ve forced out a guy from the outfield. Naturally Garrett was involved.
Really, that was a bad coaching mistake that led to the Sens having to take an out. Always leave one guy out of the batting lineup if you can just for flexibility. Though, it did speed up the game.
South Oakland’s next game is Wednesday vs. the Senators, 8pm at Spring Hill.
Quack.

This team lost 9-1 to the Lions but scored 17 runs beating the Monsters.
Never know.
Quack.
We got a hold of the “alternative training program” for these Shaler Titans. These guys look like they go pretty hard. X-Caliber is out of the lineup, so we might need a “next man up,” situation if swords are required. Game is at 1PM tomorrow. Bellevue. Lets have a good June. QUACK.
We discovered this somewhere near Shaler…
