Rangers Open Season 
With Win Over Sox

On a sunny but cool Sunday afternoon, the Trysting Place Rangers opened the 2000 M.S.B.L. season with a 12-4 victory over the Sox. Ranger starting pitcher John Arnold pitched 3 hit ball over 7 scoreless innings, while the Ranger offense used a balanced 16 hit attack to build a lead and coast to the win. In his 7 innings, Arnold allowed only 5 Sox baserunners, recording 12 ground ball outs.
Hitting highlights include SS Scott Radtke with 2 doubles, 3B Dave Globig 2 singles, RF Pete Whalen 3 hits and 3 RBI, and DH Tom Cavey 2 hits with 3 RBI. New Ranger C Mike Butterfield doubled in his first AB, caught a runner attempting to steal, and made a nice catch on a high pop near the screen. Gary Witthuhn, Jack Barron, and Eric Rohde each scored 2 runs.
