Red Devils Win Opener! It was a great opening day for the Red Devils who coasted to a 15-7 win over Oak Lawn. Coach Cronin had the team ready as the pitching was strong and the offensive exploded with 17 hits. After Oak Lawn scored one run in the top of the first inning, Central tied the game in the bottom of the first as Matt Timmermann beat out an infield single, stole second base, moved to third on a wild pitch and then scored on a sacrifice fly by Tom Bieber. In the second, the Red Devils blew open the game with a five spot. Jay Richards started the inning with a single, Ben Weed Walked and Jack Fuller singled to load the bases. Timmermann singled to left knocking in 2 runs. Sam Lucente singled to load the bases. Mike Fikaris singled to center scoring two more runs. Lucente scored the fifth run on a ground out by Sam Burnett. In the third inning, Hinsdale added another 5 runs making extending the lead to 11-2. Richards again started the onslaught with a single, Weed singled and Fuller walked to load the bases again. Timmermann’s fielder’s choice scored another run and then Lucente singled driving in 2 runs. Fikaris singled to load the bases when Tommy Delzenero singled to center added two more runs. Coach Cronin substituted most of the starters but the offense did not slow down. They added 4 more runs over the last 3 innings on hits from Garrett Knecht (3 singles), Alex Georgelos (2 doubles), and Eric Gnippe (single).
