Timely hitting, spectacular defense, and drawing an ultimately shitty team in the first two games of the season, and the Bombsquad jumps ahead to a 2-0 record for 2009.


Here's a few of our favorite shots via Bombsquad Superfan Kristen Bladel.

Obtained exclusively by this Bombsquad reporter, we have learned that the oft celebrated Bombsquad softball team has released its 2009 roster;

2009 ROSTER:
Bladel, John - 1B
Hirschberg, Dave - P, 3B
Lima, Chris - SF, OF, Utillity
Lima's Friend - ???
Oppenheim, Brad - SS
Oppenheim, Eric - C, 2B
Pascale, Chris - SF, ??
Pascale, Joe - CF, C
Reilly, George - 3B, LF
Rizzo, Mike - LF, P
Valdes, Darren - RF, CF

New to the Bombsquad is North Rocklander John Fuhrman. Fuhrman (aka Fuhrmanator) is a left handed lefty hitting outfielder/first basemen who has decent speed and extrodinary baseball knowledge.

So, no, you won't have to teach him how to run the bases, and he knows that there's no such thing as a safety bag in the major leagues.

Unretiring from retirement is fan favorite Dave Hirschberg who will compete with Gold Glove winner Mike Rizzo for the Number 1 slot in the rotation.

In a stunning move, Bombsquad GM Darren Valdes traded infielder Eric Oppenheim to Cobra Kai for a right fielder and a pair of nunchucks to be named later.

Valdes said about the trade, "Well, we're obviously sad to lose a fixture of our franchise, but we were looking to go in another direction. And I needed new nunchucks."

Oppenheim was hitting .381 at the time of the trade with one longball and six RBI.

When asked about the trade Oppy said "I'm the only winner on this team. The rest of 'em, they're losers. Either by choice, or by birth."

Wait, that was a quote from Jack Parkman....hold on, I'm screwing up stories....

Once he puts on the uniform, Oppy will become the Cobra's best player in franchise history. Instantly.

Good luck to Eric Oppenheim; one of Bombsquad Nation's most beloved player will surely be missed.

Bombsquad left fielder/pitcher Mike Rizzo has been named a finalist for the 2008 Rockland County Gold Glove Award. Rizzo qualifies as a left fielder, but his mound work will certainly make him a"shoe in" for the award.

In case you missed it, here are a few shots of Rizzo's spectacular play in the field:

RCC Field House, Suffern

In a fashion that would have made Mr. Miyagi proud, Bombsquad and Company "Crane Kicked" Cobra Kai all over RCC, winning by a score of 23-1 and 20-something.

In game one of the massacre, err...doubleheader, Darren Valdes fell a single and a double short of the cycle, but drove in four runs (3-3, 2 HR, 3B).

In the bottom of the fourth, short fielder Chris Lima homered twice in one inning, and drove in six runs. For the record, Olive Garden food had nothing to do with the power outburst. It was his college roommate's grilling that did the trick.

Every Bombsquad member had a great day at the plate. Everyone except Justin Bonita. Who can blame the guy though? I mean, Joe is constantly breaking his balls, the umpire screaming in his ear while he's swinging....and the fact that the guy who he car pools with is hitting almost 400 points higher than he is...give the guy a break!


Tim Hekl, Joe Pascale, and Mike Rizzo all pitched in the wins, allowing the least amount of runs in a double header this season.

In case anyone was wondering (or still reading the article at this point) here's the photo of George nailing the runner at third:

Bombsquad hurler Tim Hekl no-hit A&T Healtcare, as the Bombsquad took Game 1 of a double header this weekend.

Hekl didn't allow a single hit (thus the no-hitter) and Bombsquad and Company poured on the runs, winning by a margin of 10.

Bombsquaders, however lost the second game, 11-5. In an email, General Manager George Reilly said, "Game two was again pitched by Tim but we lost 11-5 although we almost came back."

Chris Rastelli homered again, proving that the game does come easier to some people. Darren Valdes also homered in the Bombsquad win/loss (I don't have a clue, I'm pulling this article out of my ass, because I wasn't there to see the games).

Tim, George, Darren, and Chris all had four hits on the day.

John Bladel only had 3 hits, lowering his team leading batting average to a dismal .647.

Also, according to manager Reilly, Mike Rizzo allegedly partied too much and was considered lost and missing at game time.
