Orators drop 2 in New London, but get fed KFC

6/13/2009
Bridgeport Orators at New London
--------
GAME 1, LOST
GAME 2, LOST

The good news is those Thames Nine are fine gentleman and their field at a historical fort on the water is quite scenic. They even fed their rival Bridgeport Boys with some vintage KFC. Well, that's all of the good news...

The Orators were thoroughly spanked in back-to-back games. Some sloppy play from the O's and hot Thames Nine bats put any hopes of a "W" to vintage sleep.

O's drop two in Rhode Island

6/6/2009
Bridgeport Orators at Providence
--------
GAME 1, LOST
GAME 2, LOST (results currently unavailable)

The Orators took a trip out to Rhode Island and fell short in two games against Providence - one a 1860's rules game, another a 1880's rules. The away sweep puts an immediate damper on the improved record of this year's Orators but the team is hoping to bounce right back this week when they travel to New London to challenge the Thames Nine.
