Posted Aug 3/15 - No More Ball in 2015

The Rockford River Bandits played their first playoff game Saturday night against the Maple Plain Diamond Devils and lost by a score of 5-3. Maple Plain hit the scoreboard first scoring two runs in the second, but Rockford answered right back in the top of the third with two runs of their own. In the bottom of the fourth the Devils got back on top by scoring one. Once again, the Bandits answered right back in the top of the fifth when Bryan McCallum singles after an Andy Jorges double. The game remained tied until the bottom of the eigth when (with two outs) when Lee Gregg hits a two RBI double to right center field. This time the Bandits were unable to respond and results in the end of the road for the 2015 season.

Offense was led by Bryan McCallum, who got three hits and knocked in one. Jorges got one double, one single, scored one run, and actually got hit by a pitch. Ben Fontana, Cody Kielsa, Tom Traen, Donnie Mavencamp, and Jordan Williams all got hits. Haven Williams, although no hits, was able to lay down two sacrifice bunts on the night.

The starting pitcher for Rockford was Jason Lesser. He through eight tough innings and managed to stike out three, giving up zero walks or hit batters, and giving up eleven hits.

The Rockford River Bandits would like to thank everyone for their support of the team this season. It was another very fun year and everyone is a part of making the games as enjoyable as they are. We will give a special shoutout to Dave Pederson, whose articles in the Crow River News have been greatly enjoyed by the players and fans. Before the Bandits look to the 2016 season a couple team events are currently in the works. A fundraiser Beer Bust will be scheduled sometime during the off-season along with a couple other activities. Stayed tuned for further announcements.
