O-Zone Update for Week Two


O-Zone's second full week of play was a monumental week for Hartsville National.  This week marked the first week of Interleague Play with our friends from Lamar and Bishopville. 

Tim Jordan and Brian Meadows' crew kicked off Interleague Play against Lowder Farms.  Unfortunately for the Real Estate Moguls, Lowder Farms was able to plow the field for a 7-3 victory.  Also on Monday at Byerly Park, Bishopville's baseball version of Sonoco beat Willie Austin's Palmetto Pride 10-0

All four O-Zone teams had Interleague matchups on Tuesday.  Ricky Fink took his Saleeby & Cox club to Bishopville for Hartsville National's first road game in Interleague Play.  First Citizens was able to deposited runs when they need them and won the game 7-4.  While Fink's fortunes weren't so good on the road, Pennington & Meadows was able to get back on the winning track with a 21-0 win in Lamar. 

Lowder Farms traveled to Byerly Park again on Tuesday.  And again, they came away victorious.  This time with a win over Darlington Packing.  The 10-9 defeat marked the first loss of the season for Steve Irick's club.

Following the example set by Pennington & Meadows earlier in the night, Willie Austin's Palmetto Pride were able to knockoff Lamar 11-8. 

On Thursday, Ricky Fink carried his team back to Bishopville.  This time, Saleeby & Cox fell to Sonoco 11-8.

Minor League Update after Week Two


The second week of the Minor League season picked up where the first week left off:  lots of high drama and competitive play.  On Monday, Allstate picked up their first win of the season, beating SPC 10-3.  Ten year olds Rodney Atkinson, Tate McLendon and Bridges Teal led the charge for Allstate, with first year player J'shawn Anderson stating his case for Rookie of the Year.

Monday night's second game saw Quez Hadley's outstanding pitching performance come up short against Hartsville Surgical.  Playing from behind the whole game, the Fighting Stethoscopes rallied to score 7 in the bottom of the fifth and sealed the game with McKendrie Douglas retrieving an arrant throw and then throwing Hadley out at the plate.  The final score was 10-8 in favor of Hartsville Surgical.

The close games continued on Tuesday.  Thanks to some great play in the outfield (notably from J'sahwn Anderson and Jacob Perdue), Allstate kept up their winning ways by defeating MKA 9-7.

In Tuesday's second game, SPC knocked Hartsville Surgical from the ranks of the unbeaten by the score of 10-6.  Xavion Robinson pitched a masterpiece.  The bats of Tagan Roscoe and Spence Tallon proved to be too much for HSC. 

On Thursday, MKA bounced back from their close game with Allstate to defeat Jiffy Print 11-1. 

Standings after Week 2:

Hartsville Surgical 3-1
Allstate 2-2
SPC 2-2
MKA 2-2

Farm League Update after Week Two




On Monday, April 6th, the first game of the night was the Battle of the Civic Clubs:  Kiwanis vs. Lions.  Coaches Shelley & Johnny Gaymon had their Kiwanis team ready, but they proved to be no match for the Mighty Lions, falling 14-5.  In the nightcap, it was the Sonoco vs. Sonoco Recycling, also known as the DeLoach Cup.  Sonoco Recycling, led by Avery Fulwood, Lan Holloman and Noah McAteer (among others), prevailed over Dave Pulling's crew, 9-7. 

On Tuesday, Palmetto Precision Products took the field a twinbill.  In the first game, PPP, as they're affectionately known around the league, picked up their first win of the season, topping Kiwanis 14-10.  Sonoco Recycling had PPP's number in the nightcap, winning 18-8.

On Thursday, Caleb Walters, Bam Bam Fisher and the Lions showed some heart as they knocked off PPP by a score of 18-7.

After two weeks of play, Sonoco Recycling remains the only undefeated team in all of Hartsville National's leagues.  Steven Wint's club sits atop the Farm League standings at 4-0.  They're followed by the Lions at 3-1 and Sonoco at 2-2.  Kiwanis and Palmetto Precision Products are next, sharing a 1-4 record.
