The Lourdes Eagles wrapped up the baseball portion of their 2010 Spring Training trip on Wednesday with three practice contests. It was an endurance test as the simulations were back-to-back-to-back, but the boys persevered. Today we co-oped practices with two teams from Ohio and one from Illinois. Contest one saw Tom Schroeder, Mark Greve and Zach Muehlenbein eat up some innings on the mound. Muehlenbein then started contest two. Jesse Neumann and Nick Schoeberl then combined to finish up pitching. At the plate, Schoeberl had a double. In the third and final contest, played in the big stadium, Chris Griffin added to his league-leading triple total with two more. Griff had 3 RBIs. Tom Schroeder added a two-run single. Tom and Mark Greve also drove in runs with sacrifice flies. Ricky Devorak pitched 5 1/3 sharp innings, then gave way to David Keeney who retired the final two batters.
With our remaining hours in Florida the boys have decided they would like to visit the beach one more time. It will be a very early wake-up Thursday morning, as we have to be to the airport in West Palm Beach by about 7 am. Dodgertown was a neat experience but we're ready to come home.
