Detroit Cobras Opening Day!
It was a big “Opening Day” at the Cobras Den yesterday. We had the whole park rockin. It was a Standing Room only crowd in Detroit to greet their 2008 Detroit Cobras Baseball Team. Hillary Clinton threw out the first pitch. Catching the first pitch was Mike Huckabee. Which the crowd chanted HUCK, HUCK, HUCK. We had all the big names standing around home plate when she did this. The Governor was here. Soupy Sales, The Mayor of Detroit was here. The Stealth made a pass over while the National Anthem was being sung by the one and only Little Stevie Wonder. It was a great start of a new Season in Detroit Cobras Baseball.
Now if the Cobras could get off to a good start. The Opening Day Pitcher was Phillip Chamberlain against the Providence King Cats. With butterflies in his stomach Phillip went all 9 Innings giving up just 4 Hits and striking out 4. His whole Family came to the Ball Park to see him pitch and Chamberlain never let them down for a second. When the Cobras got the final out of the Game they all rushed the mound and carried Phillip Chamberlain off the mound as if they just won the World Series. This group of players are really a tight nit group. All for one, and one for all. There is three new names in the Line-Up this season. Baliboa, Kassidy, and Sittler. Phillip Chamberlain also won the “Player of the Game” Award.
For the first Sim of the new Season Detroit went 7 and 3 and is in first place a half of a game over Bridgeport and Toronto. With their Magic Number being 153. It’s still early in the season but this Team looks a lot better then last years Team was.
The Battle Cry this season for the Cobras is “That’s one down, now lets win on tomorrow”.
That’s all for Opening Day in Detroit.
