ISC II Daily Log part 4

August 15th, 2006

By Blair Setford & Jim Flanagan

The assault on the record book continued at the ISC II Tournament of Champions on Tuesday. Leading the way is Corey Costello of the Micksburg Twins… On the heels of his 20-strikeout perfect game vs Orangeville, Costello struck out 20 again, tossing a no-hitter against Reading, PA Bob Hoffman’s Garage, with only a walk spoiling another perfect game… Not content with that, Costello came back at 5 pm to strikeout 15 against the defending champion Elmira, ON Cubs in a 3-0 win setting up a potential 3-way tie for first in pool A … Costello has 55 strikeouts in three games … Thomson, IL Area Merchants were facing elimination and needed to beat the host Bridgeport, ON PROforma Braves 3-2 on the strength of a 16-strikeout, 5-hit performance from Jonas Mach who now has 66 strikeouts in 4 games pitched… Kitchener Phoenix Outlaws clinched first place in pool F finishing 4-0 in the round robin with an upset 6-5 win over Elora Brewers … Setting up action Wednesday, Alvinston can wrap up first place in pool D with a win over Palermo, but a Palermo win forces a three-way tie for first … Colorado Rage can force a three-way tie for first in pool A if they can beat Orangeville … The winner of Waterdown & California (1 pm on www.ballparkradio.com) will finish in second in pool B … a Black Gold win over Harriston (11 am on www.ballparkradio.com) coupled with a Rise win over Up-to-Date Painting (9 am on www.ballparkradio.com) could set up a three-way tie for first in pool C … Mitchell Mets will win pool E while Glencoe will finish second … Needing wins to have a chance to qualify are Ashland, playing Mitchell, and CPI playing JRW … the winner of Elora-Stittsville will likely advance to the playoffs while the loser will go home … in pool G, Ottawa’s win over Tavistock would set up a 3-way tie with those two teams and South Lebanon TNT if the latter can beat Toronto.

Bonus Broadcast on Ballparkradio.com – 11am EDT Tuesday

August 15th, 2006

We are pleased to bring you a “bonus” broadcast this morning (Tuesday, Aug 15, 11am Eastern), a game between the Marshal Michigan Rice Creek Lightning and the Stittsville Ontario 56ers of Canada. We lost one broadcast yesterday when a rain delay required rescheduling of Monday’s schedule. In its place, we have added this morning’s 11am game, with the newest additions to Ballparkradio’s broadcast crew, Kyle Smith and David Bakker. Both have extensive fastball backgrounds, and are great additions to the crew. Kyle has experience as a broadcaster at his college, while David himself a fastball pitcher.

Our crew now includes ISC II Commissioner Blair Setford, Jim Flanagan, Joe Todd, Lance Winn (who also plays for Palermo in this tournament), David Bakker, Kyle Smith, and our roving sideline reporter, Chris Bach, who will keep you up to date on the latest results on games at other diamonds during the course of our broadcasts. We’ll post some photos of the broadcast crew so that you can put a face with their name.

We are enjoying hearing from all of you, and invite you to keep the emails coming. You can email our broadcasters while they are on the air, at live (at) ballparkradio.com

The complete schedule of broadcasts for the day are posted in the black side bar on every page at BALLPARKRADIO, www.ballparkradio.com.
