Baltimore’s Bats Crush Charleston
CHARLESTON, SC - Four different Baltimore Ninjas homered in a 12-5 victory over the home-standing Charleston Windjammers. The scoring started early as the Ninjas (1-0) built a 10-0 lead by the fourth inning. They would not let up after that. Kenneth Donaldson went 4 for 5 with a homer. Alvin Abram added a three-run shot that sailed with the wind like an Atlantic schooner.
All in all, the Ninjas record 17 hits compared to the Windjammers’ 11. Charleston (0-1) debuted in the newly built I.O.P. Park that was described by many baseball critics as “the most beautiful ball park in the league”. The Windjammers’ glorious premiere, however, was undercut by the big bats of Baltimore. Paul Daulhausser proved to be the opening star for Charleston by going 3 for 4 and driving in a run.
“They just played harder,” Josh Hughett, the Windjammers’ manager said following the loss. “They (Ninjas) seemed more prepared for the windy condition than we were.” The two teams meet again on Tuesday at I.O.P. Park.
