Six...Seriously? Print E-mail
Thursday, 30 July 2009 11:24

That's right, there are only six more Sharks games left in the 2009 season. Then it is back home, back to school, back to real life off of this enchanted isle we call summer baseball.


While a winning season it has not been, and enchanting may be a bit too romantic, it has definitely been quite a season. However, the time for reminiscing is not yet here, though never  fear that blog will come, but for now there is still some business yet to be taken care of during this last stretch of games.


For instance, with tonight's game as the first, the Sharks have two more games to try and make it a five hundred season against the Florence Redwolves. Also playing for divisional pride, the Sharks can extend their season series lead over the Columbia Blowfish as they visit the "Shark Tank" once more on the last day of the season.


On a more personal note, Jesse Bosnik is still within close shouting distance of the league hit crown. The St. Bonaventure Bonny is seven back with 57 base knocks on the season.


Starters Daniel Cropper and J.C. Casey both are looking at possible top 10 finishes in the league ERA standings. Cropper is also on the strike out leader board with 63 punch outs while with one more start J.C. will be back in the lead in innings pitched league wide.


Meanwhile a couple of relievers are playing out the string with some scoreless innings streaks. Hunter Ford has not allowed a run this month stringing together 10 plus innings of scoreless ball. His fellow bull-pen mate Sean Toler hasn't allowed an earned run in his last six appearances for a total of ten and one third innings with just three unearned runs and nine strike outs.


So while the Sharks post season lamps were dimmed by losses, there is still a bright week of America's past time ahead for all things Shark baseball. Join us won't you?
