The Zoo was the host to six exciting opening weekend games on a beautful Sunday afternoon. Three teams, The Wicked Aces, Donkeys, and King Friday were making their league debuts, and the new look Mattseals were hungry to prove their not the old Mattseals.
The first two games were between the Donkeys and the Mattseals. In game one, Adam Cosby of the Seals faced off against Don Shaw of the Donkeys. The score was tied 0-0 until Matt Murtha got things started in the bottom of the 5th with a double. After getting hit over to 3rd base with two outs, Jeremy Haap hit a squibler just over the deadball line to score Murtha and win the game for the Donkeys 1-0.
In game two, Jason Hewlett of the Seals faced off against Joe Seto of the Donkeys. Hewlett allowed a first inning run, but held the Donkeys scoreless through five innings and was then relived by Chris Paquin. Joe Seto allowed one run through 7 innings and was relived by Matt Murtha in the 8th. The game ended in controversal fasion in the bottom of the 9th when Joe Seto tagged up from 3rd base to score after the Seals failed to call a legal timeout.

Games three and four saw the Whiteford Wicked Aces face off against the host Donkeys. Former Flying Squirrel and Clown Shu candidate Austin Bischoff battled against his former Squirrels teammate Murtha in game 3. It took 7 innings for the Aces to score a run, and behind Austin's no hitter, they took down the game 1-0.
Evan Bischoff started game four, but was pulled after walking the first three batters. Joel Crozier cleaned up his mess and then pitched five innings of shut out wiffleball. Joe Seto pitched for the Donkeys, but without any run support, took the loss. The Aces won game four 2-0, to give Crozier the win.

Games five and six were between the Wicked Aces and the all rookie team, King Friday. These were home games for the field-less Fridays. Richard Hurd's coaching philosophy was to try out as many pitchers as possible, and they shocked everyone by keeping game five close. The score was tied 0-0 all the way until the fourth inning when the Aces were finally able to score a run. It was the only run of the game to give the Aces a 1-0 victory. The big story of this game was the pitching performance by the Aces #3 pitcher, Justin Hughes. It didn't take long to see a perfect game, and Hughes has the first one of 2012!
Game six was a coming out party for the Wicked Aces bats, as they were able to score seven runs to win the game 7-0. Evan Bischoff gave it another try on the mound, and also pitched a perfect game! In the two games between the Wicked Aces and King Friday, Friday never had a single baserunner.
Good times were had by all, and a big thanks to Joe Seto and the Donkeys for hosting these games on his interesting, but lovely field.
