In unseasonably cold weather, the A's dropped the season opener to the Harwich Mariners. Starter Steve Richard (Maine) pitched well, but was victimized by defensive miscues early in the game. Josh Santerre (Manhattan) proved very effective in relief. The A's made a late rally with three runs, but the big deficit proved too much to overcome. The A's will open up at home on Friday, June, 17th against the Orleans Cardinals.

The Whitecaps put on a thirteen hit display not often seen early in the season. A trio of Whitecap hurlers held the A's to one run on five hits.

In a game that saw a couple of lead changes, the Chatham A's came out on the losing side to the visiting Wareham Gatemen, 4-3. A's starter Brandon Hynick (Birmingham Southern) struck out eight in a solid five innings being victimized by some shoddy defense that led to two unearned runs.

It was Brown's first loss of the season. The A's are now 5-4 and hope to get back in the win column against the Falmouth Commodores on Sunday evening at Veteran's Field.

Game Recap

The June 28th A's game against Wareham has been postponed due to impending fog at Veterans Field. With fog rolling through the Lower Cape since Monday evening the 27th, when conditions had not improved significantly by Tuesday afternoon, Chatham and Wareham management agreed to postpone the 7pm ballgame. The decision was made at approximately 4pm in order to save the Gatemen an hour bus ride across Cape Cod.

The game has been rescheduled for Wednesday, July 16th at 7pm in Chatham, the next available date for both teams. Though Chatham was prepared to play Wednesday night, June 29th, the Gatemen had already scheduled a team function.

The A's expected starter for Tuesday night was UNC's Andrew Miller who has experienced the frustration of Chatham fog in the past. On July 2nd, 2004, Miller had stuck out 12 batters in four innings against the Falmouth Commodores before thick fog stopped the game just before the fifth inning. By rule, the game was to be replayed from the beginning at a later date, effectively wiping out all statistics, including the 12 K's.

After a fogout and a scheduled day off, the A's had no trouble staying on the winning track, defeating division foe Harwich 6-1. Chatham improves to 8-4 and has sole possession of first place in the East. Andrew Miller picks up his second win in as many starts, with the A's bullpen contributing a perfect 8th and 9th.

UNC's Andrew Miller had been slated to start the Tuesday, June 28th game against Wareham, but with that game fogged out, Miller had two extra days of rest. The Tarheel allowed one run on a sacrifice fly in the 3rd inning, scattering four hits over seven innings. With Miller's typical combination of sliders and mid-nineties fastballs, he kept Mariners hitters off balance, striking out six while never facing more than four batters in an inning, walking only one. Brooks Brown from UGA and Derrik Lutz from GWU completed the game for Miller throwing 1-2-3 8th and 9th innings respectively. The hard throwing duo lead the team in appearances with five each, with Lutz picking up three saves.

Trailing 1-0 in the bottom of the 3rd, the A's scored four runs on five hits in the bottom of the frame, sending 10 men to bat. After a leadoff walk to Pepperdine's Adrian Ortiz and an infield hit from Mississippi's Alex Presley, Baron Frost (USC) could not get a bunt down. However, two wild pitches from Mulvey not only allowed the runners to advance, but one run to come home. Frost then singled to score Presley from third. Chris Coghlan (Mississippi) singled hard to right moving Frost to second with one out. With two outs, two more runs scored when a ground ball from Jacob Dempsey (Winthrop) led to a throwing error from Harwich shortstop Arman Sidhu. Chris Coghlan picked up his second hit of the night leading off the 5th inning, a solo home run, his first for the A's. Nick Derba was hit by a pitch in the 8th and scored the final A's run after another Harwich error. Final score: Chatham 6, Harwich 1.

Chatham's first run came in the first inning on a two-out RBI double by Todd Frazier, scoring Evan Longoria from 2nd base. The A's added one more in the fourth, when Baron Frost rapped a basehit into right with the bases loaded to score Aaron Reza.

Miller and Bard both settled down for the next several innings, until Miller began to lose control in the 6th. The 6'6" lefty walked Jordan Dodson, hit Mark Sawyer and walked Michael McCallister to load the bases. A wild pitched scored one run, an error from Chris Coghlan plated another, with the third run of the inning scoring on a sacrifice fly from Lance Salsgiver.

With Chatham trailing 4-3, the A's pushed two runs across in the 7th. Adrian Ortiz reached on an E4, Alex Presley singled and then Baron Frost hit a deep fly ball for a sacrifice play to score Ortiz.

Game Recap

Listen to the Broadcast Box Score

Chatham came back from the brink of defeat to escape a bases loaded, no out debacle in the bottom of the tenth inning. After having allowed his first run all season in the previous inning, the A's closer, Derrik Lutz got a popup, a strikeout and a lineout to end the inning.

Chatham's offense responded in the top of the 11th inning. Garrett Bussiere singled to start the inning, but was replaced at first by Adrian Ortiz after a fielder's choice on a sacrifice attempt. Ortiz moved to second on an Alex Presley single through the middle. After a passed ball advanced both runners, Baron Frost reached base on a fielder's choice as Orleans shortstop Steve Singleton tried get Ortiz straying too far from third, but Adrian was safe. With the bases loaded, a passed ball that could have been ruled a wild pitch allowed Ortiz to score to give Chatham a 4-3 lead. With Presley on third and Frost on second, Longoria struckout and Chris Coghlan was intentionally walked. With the bases loaded and two out, Josh Morris delivered a hard single on a 3-2 pitch through the left side, scoring Presley and Frost, the final runs to score in the game.

With a 3 run lead in the bottom of the 11th, Derrik Lutz polished off the last 3 Cardinals in order, getting a ground ball back to the mound, a flyout to center and a groundout to second base.

Chatham leads the best of 3 series 1 game to none, as the series shifts to Chatham. The A's can clinch at home tonight at 7EST, with a special THIRTY minute A's Extra Pregame Show starting at 6:30.
