A strong finish from Southern Knights in the Wednesday evening competition last week saw it record a commanding 7-3 victory.

Strong fielding from both sides kept scores at 3-2 in the first two innings before centre field Bree Dawson led her side to victory.

A home run for catcher Chelsea Kimber was a highlight for Casey in the following match, but Frankston’s nine-run first innings proved insurmountable.

On Saturday, Narre Warren Penguins defeated MVPs 10-6 after scoring six runs in their first two innings, with pitcher Kyla McGuire shining in the victory and her opposite number Vicki Giddens was best in the diamond for MVPs.

Reigning premiers Geronimo got on the field for the first time this season on the weekend and eased to a 17-0 victory over Doveton Renegades after an 11 run first innings.

In the social women’s competition, Cobras won 5-3 as both teams were defensively strong.

In the women’s B Grade, Cobras started strongly with a seven run first innings and didn’t allow Doveton to get in a rhythm with their batting, with pitcher Rachel Steendam named best in the 10-5 victory.

Excellent team batting from Berwick Cheyenne and home runs from Kirsten Hamilton and Melissa Hawker got them to a comfortable 19-5 victory over Cranbourne.

Meanwhile in the men, the clash between Cobras Grey and Warriors looked headed for a tense climax after a scoreless first two innings to each side.

Cobras ultimately won a thriller 8-7 with all seven of the Cobras runs coming in the final innings as they nearly clawed their way to an incredible come-from-behind victory.

In the final game of the day, Cobras, led by short stop Clint Fitzgerald, eased to victory over Cranbourne meteorites.
