PX | Pink Unicorns Celebrate Mr. October in May

Game

Saturday, 5/19 @ 8.30a on ATS#2 - Pink Unicorns @ Thunder Bunnies

By Pink Smith

Just a day after Major League Hall of Famer Reggie Jackson celebrated his 66th birthday, the Pink Unicorns matched the Yankee-great’s 1977 World Series heroics with three round-trippers in a Pixie League game against the hard-hitting Thunder Bunnies at ATS on Saturday. Charlotte, Claire and Sofia slugged inning-ending long balls to equal Mr. October’s feat…okay, it took three of them to do it, but they are only seven years old!

Molly and Ella slammed fly balls to the left side and Sophie chipped in a hard line drive in the second inning to pace the Unicorn offense. Alexa and Zoe got the Unicorns going in the third, getting on base before Maeve gave the capacity crowd a Pete Rose-moment with a hard slide into first base.

The Pink Unicorns defense was also on display. Katie and Eleanor flashed the leather, making heads up defensive gems at third base to thwart a strong Thunder Bunnies offense.

Sage 12U | Mother’s Day Game Highlights

Posted on by

The Arlington Sage 12U team continued its strong play Sunday as it again split a doubleheader before what appeared to be a record Mothers’ Day crowd. The Sage offense is looking better each week. Today they collected six hits in each of the games and displayed some aggressive base running all day.

Game 1 

Arlington Sage      13
KOA Cobras           4

Jilly’s pitching was nearly flawless for three innings as she recorded four strikeouts while giving up only one hit and no walks. Jilly has not walked a batter in her last six innings of Sage play.

Other highlights include:

  • Nell’s first hit in her first game of the season
  • Lindsay’s third double in as many weeks (it is becoming a regular thing)
  • 10 different players scored runs

Game 2 

Reston Red Birds     4
Arlington Sage       2

When the Red Birds and the Sage squared off two weeks ago, the outcome was much different as the Red Birds crushed the Sage 13-0. Sunday, the Sage pitchers – MO and Hanna – kept the Red Birds off balance — only allowing two balls reached the outfield all game.

The Sage had its chances as they stranded seven runners on base over four inning, including leaving the bases loaded in the second inning. When time was called – the Sage was again rallying – Angela was at second and Sophie, representing the tying run, was coming to bat. Think about it… just one extra flare, just one gorp… a groundball with eyes… a dying quail, just one more dying quail today… and the Sage 12U may have swept the doubleheader.

Other highlights include:

  • Angela and Carolyn both had a single and a walk in two at bats.
  • Carolyn went a combined 2 for 2 with a walk and a run scored in the doubleheader.
  • Bryanna had a single in two at bats and scored a run (leads the team with a .533 AVG and a .650 OBP)
