San Juan Coqui
Saturday 25th March 2034
L 1-4 Freddy Brooks

Masaru Kouki and José Gómez shared the workload for San Juan to stifle the Calzones bats, 4 innings each giving up only 1 run that going to the arm of Gómez.

One bright spot for the Calzones was the performance of Freddy Brooks who scored the Calzones only run of the game, Brooks now as a batting average of .314 with an home run and 7 rbi in ST.

Manchester Maulers
Sunday 26th March 2034
W 3-1 Shigekazu Shimizu

The Calzones stopped a 4 game losing streak with a 3-1 win over the Maulers, the team from Manchester led to there own downfall giving up 4 walks. Derek 'Spaceman' Valera have up 2 but it was Hsui-chuan Bi who not only have up the other 2 walks but 3 runs and 3 hits in just 2/3 of an inning.

San Antonio didn't care how they came by the win, at least it stopped the losing streak.

Havana Leones
Monday 26th March 2034
W 3-1 Luis Antonio Aguilera

Luis Antonio Aguilera finally showed up for a game in spring training a game that may have saved his spot on the roster, a decent glove a less than decent bat a lack of better players had given Aguilera a shot at a spot but his ceiling was falling in with the lack of movement within his stats.

Maybe he's turned his spring training around as he got a hit and rbi in the game previous to this game after going hitless in 7 games previously, tag on 2 hits in this game and who knows a spot on the bench maybe waiting.

Hartford Harpoon
Tuesday 27th March 2034
L 4-13 Carlos Costa

The Calzones couldn't comeback from what was a disastrous start in the 1st, it all fell apart for Anthony Lee as well more so for Lee as he didn't even record an out. 23 pitches, 5 hits, 7 earned runs, Lee can take solace that he wasn't the only pitcher to have an howler. Johnathan 'Crazy Legs' Hurlburt also went an outing without gaining an out, he threw 11 pitches giving up 4 hits 2 of those that reached the outfield bleachers. A truly forgettable outing by the pitchers if the regular season wasn't on the horizon.

Florida Farstriders
Wednesday 28th March 2034
L 2-6 Gordon 'Sturm' Knopp

It could be a long hard season, made lengthier by being in the same division as the Farstriders from Florida also made lengthier by going up against Gordon Knopp.

Knopps statline in 2 games, 6 at bats, 3 hits, 3 rbi, 5 total bases a triple and throw in a stolen base for good measure. Don't wish him to get injured but I hope they rest him when they play the Calzones.

Charleston Statesmen
Thursday 29th March 2034
L 2-3 Takejiro Kawashima

The Charleston defeat wasn't to much to swallow, it was the last game of spring training and a few players needed resting a few needed a workout. We also wanted to try different players in different sports in the line up, so all in all a 3-2 defeat on the road to the Statesmen wasn't a big loss to be honest.

The worry and it's what most HIs deal with is, injuries. The Calzones have a decent line up, not great but decent however we have a poor bench. A couple of injuries, lengthy injuries could destroy a play off push specially as our team trainer isn't the best.
