Dogs Capture Third Consecutive MMSPBL Crown
Wednesday, July 28 @ 08:42:45 EDT (6 reads)

The Flying Dogs capped off their 2010 Mid-Maryland Semi-Pro Baseball League season on an 11-0 run with their final victory earning them their third consecutive league title.  The Flying Dogs went 5-0 in the new pool-play playoff format implemented this season.  They dismissed a tough Carroll Spartans team in the semi-final 4-2 and rolled through the Baltimore Bobcats 11-1 in the final.  The Dogs finished the MMSPBL season with a 25-4 league record and a 9-3 record in interleague play, 34-7 overall.

The next stop for the Flying Dogs is the National Amateur Baseball Federation regional tournament in Salisbury, MD beginning Thursday August 5th.  The tournament is an 8 team pool-play format, the winner moves on to the NABF World Series in Louisville, KY the following week.  Then the team will represent the MMSPBL in the Maryland State Tournament hosted by Maryland Semi-Pro Baseball at Harford Community College on Saturday August 28th.  The one day tournament will be a single elimination format and will host up to 6 league champions from all over Maryland.

Flying Dogs No-Hit Express
Saturday, July 10 @ 10:13:36 EDT (26 reads)

Matt Buchholz, Matt Conway and Nick Bourque combined to throw 7 innings of no-hit baseball Friday against the Brunswick Express.  Matt Buchholz allowed the loan Express run after hitting 3 batters in the top of the 3rd and allowing a sacrifice fly.  Conway came on in relief to throw 2 no-hit innings and was followed by Bourque who threw the final frame and picked up the win.

The Flying Dogs offense got on the board in the 1st after Abe Buckman walked and later scored on a fielders choice. With the game tied and 1-1 going in to the bottom of the 7th, Rich Ropp lead off the inning with a double and later scored the winning run on a bases loaded walk.

Flying Dogs Beat Spartans
Friday, May 07 @ 08:53:43 EDT (111 reads)

Frederick took sole position of 1st place in the Mid-Maryland Semi-Pro Baseball League on Thursday knocking off the only other undefeated team the Carroll County Spartans 4-0 at Hampstead Municipal Park.  Chris Fulda’s RBI double in the 3rd inning proved to be all the Dogs would need as Matt Buchholz fired 7 scoreless innings while striking out 13.  Buchholz added an RBI double to help his cause in the 5th.  After 3 league games the Flying Dogs are yet to allow a run to score.

The team will not play this weekend, a scheduled off weekend for the league to observe Mothers Day.  They will hold a field day to prepare Husky Park for their home opener against the Sykesville Bulldogs on Thursday 5/13 at 6:00PM.

Chris Fulda at Heritage Classic
The Flying Dog's started the 2010 season off on the right foot winning their first two games of the Heritage Classic early bird tournament in Woodbridge, VA.  The Dog's are the top seed entering the semi-final round of the tournament after defeating Ermi's Baseball from the host Blue and Grey League 4-0 in game one and shutting out the VA Diamondbacks, also of the Blue and Grey League 17-0 in game 2.  Matt Buchholz picked up the win in game one and was followed in relief by Erik Huffnagel and Ray Riggles.  The Dog's plated 3 runs in the first inning and were led offensively by Fulda and Roebuck who had 2 hits apiece.

In game 2 the bats came to life against the Diamondbacks pitchers, led by Chris Fulda who had 2 homeruns and 5 RBI in the game.  Brandon Roebuck also had his first homerun of the 2010 season.  Tim Martin had a dominant start on the hill for the Dogs allowing only 1 hit over 3 innings while picking up the win.  Steve Canale pitched the following 2 innings in relief in the 5 inning contest shortened by the mercy rule.

The Heritage Classic will continue on Saturday April 10th.  The Flying Dogs will take on the 2 seed of the Signal Hill Pool the Potomac Hawks at 12:45 at Heritage Field.
