The Carney Pirates final game of the Old Dominion League season was canceled due to poor field conditions caused by the prior day rains. The Pirates finished with a perfect record beating teams that had cumulatively won over 60% of their games and virtually every time saved their ace for throwing against the Pirates. The Pirates, also with the exception of their last victory a 10-1 beating of one of the league’s other top tier teams, always swung wood bats against their opponents aluminum, a significant batting average disadvantage. If memory serves me correctly (and I could be wrong) the Carney Pirates are the first ODL team to have a perfect season since General R.E. Lee’s great grandson, Sockitoo lead the 1925 Del Ray Confederates to an undefeated season. Congratulations Pirates. Tonight at 5:00pm back to wood against the twenty year olds. Get there early and grab a great seat, the snack bar is open and serving up the health food that made them famous among cardiologists. See you there.
