A lot of interesting storylines in week 1 of the CTL Season…
The Orioles are the only 2-0 team after one week, and one of only 4 of 10 teams still undefeated.
The Glastonbury Pirates won their first game of the year over the Indians in dramatic walkoff fashion.
The expansion Dodgers rebounded to tie (darkness shortened) the veteran team, the East Hartford Angels after losing a very rusty game 1 to the expansion (sort of) Royals.
Elmer’s rebounded from a tough game 1 loss to the 2016 runners up, Willimantic Ridges… to no-hit the Bristol Knights in their 2nd game, behind the very strong pitching of new LHP Dennis Accomando at Muzzy Field. Bristol had their chances, but couldn’t find a hole for a hit and Accomando looked in mid-season form.
Bristol Knights Marco Ross was the POTG in the first Knights game of the year at Muzzy Field, Pitching a CG shutout 1-hitter over the new, young, and scrappy expansion Expos.
2 Homeruns were hit in week 1 also, one by Tyler McIntyre for Elmer’s at Muzzy Field, and the other by Nate Narducci of the Orioles at West Road.
Week 2 starts today with a game Monday with the Bristol Knights visiting the East Hampton Royals at West Road Field.
