Wiffle Ball Spring Training Opens
With spring training opening in the MWBL (Mechanicsburg Wiffle Ball League), many experts thought the Monroe Street Marauders would go head-to-head with the Yankees in an attempt to sign Alex Rodriguez. The Marauders surprised everyone though by signing Jake Buffington, a young Pennsylvania prospect who's wicked one handed swing and strong arm looks to power the Marauders to the League championship.
The Marauders also passed on A-Rod because they have a shortstop that perhaps has more range at the position than any player in Wiffle Ball League history. Hunter Dogg, has amazing stop and go abilities, that some believe he fine tuned by chasing Rabbits of all things.
Local man and Wiffle ball analyst and expert "Dude" Steck has been observing the Marauders as they have opened Spring Training. "J-Buff pulls the ball like no one I have ever seen", said Steck. "He about took the head off of player playing the hot corner today. The guy never saw the ball coming. He's just wild enough pitching the ball to intimidate the batter.", continued Steck. With a Wiffle Ball aficionado like "Dude" Steck thinking that highly of J-Buff, who is the youngest player in league history at 2 years old, how can the kid fail.
Steck also had this to say about Hunter Dogg. "The Dogg is Barry Sanders in a Wiffle Ball uniform, err.. Well in a fur uniform. Amazing range, nothing gets by him", said Steck. Six year old Hunter Dogg is a long time veteran and brings experience to the Marauders. It is apparent the Marauders have plenty of weapons and they are looking forward to moving practice from the basement gym to the backyard.
