Tigers Scrimmage Mountain Lake

4/27/08

The Tigers hit the field for the first time on Sunday, as they scrimmaged the Mountain Lake Lakers. The weather was a bit brisk, but it didn't dampen the excitement that could be seen on everyone's faces. It's baseball season!!

Matt Tews, Jon Diede, Marty Brandl, and Chris Sturm all spent time on the mound for Springfield. Adam Beers and Chris Moritz took the field for the first time for the Tigers. Dave Groebner stepped to the plate for the first time since 1999, as he makes his return to the middle of the Tiger order in 2008. Other returning players at the scrimmage were: Bob Fink, Brent Haseleu, Brady Schwab, Al Wilhelmi, and Steve Helget.

Since it was a scrimmage, no statistics or score were kept. It was just an opportunity to throw some innings and get some at-bats in anticipation of the regular season home opener next Sunday against Lamberton at 2pm. Come down and cheer on the Tigers as they battle the Long Sox!
