RED DEVILS CRUSH OAK LAWN IN SEASON OPENER!

The Hinsdale 2009 Sophomore team started off the season well with an away win in Oak Lawn.  The windy and wet conditions made play difficult throughout. However, the Red Devils jumped to early 4-0 lead in the opening innings with some impressive hitting which led to Oak Lawn's opening pitcher being retired early.  Chris Bobo was impressive for the Devils on the mound going scoreless through two and then John Spacapan matched his efforts in the third and fourth innings.  Pat Foley was reliable as ever from behind the plate.  By the top of the fifth, Hinsdale had stretched their lead to 12-0 thanks to some power hitting from Chris Bobo and Jack Gilbert, both of whom would probably have recorded homers on any other field.

Jimmy Blodgett pitched the fifth for the Devils to make it a complete game.  At this point, the umpires decided to call the game because of poor visibility with a final score of 12-3.
