The Season Story

Twenty-two games. A no-hitter on opening day, a rough patch in September, and a closing run that saw the Shamrocks win 10 of their last 12.

Act One · August

The Perfect Start

The fall opened with a statement: a combined no-hitter at TBSA Tribe on August 12, then two more wins on August 25 over Chatham and AL Post 32. 3–0, and the Shamrocks were rolling.

Act Two · September

The Rough Patch

September tested them — four losses, three of them to Arsenal, including one-run heartbreakers against Arsenal (7–8) and at TBSA (5–6). The wins over AL Post 32, Paws, and Chatham kept the season on the rails.

Act Three · The Close

Ten of Twelve

From September 22 on, the Shamrocks went 10–2, ripping off an eight-game win streak from October 10–16. Against everyone except Arsenal, they finished 16–2 — the one team they never solved was the only blemish on the fall.

Fall 2026 is in the books: 16–6, 209 runs scored, 246 stolen bases, and a group of 9-year-olds who learned to finish. Final.

Team Moments

Aug 12

A No-Hitter to Open the Fall

Opening day at TBSA Tribe: A Hale, M Steel, L Mizer, and J Hamrock combined to no-hit the Tribe with 12 strikeouts in a 14–3 win. The season started exactly the way you draw it up.

Oct 13

Harvey Goes Deep

D Harvey hit the team's only home run of the fall against the Warbirds — on a day the pitching staff piled up 14 strikeouts in a 13–4 win.

Oct 15

One Hit, No Runs

At the RCB Rockets, the staff combined on a one-hit shutout in a 12–0 win — the most dominant pitching day of the season.

Oct 16

28 Stolen Bases

Against Chatham, the Shamrocks ran wild — 28 stolen bases in a single game, part of a 246-steal season. If you reached base, you were moving.

Oct 10–16

The Eight-Game Win Streak

Eight straight wins in seven days — the Miners twice, the Tigers, Midland Greene, the Warbirds twice, the Rockets, and Chatham — outscoring opponents 91–20 along the way.

O Mcrill

“The Run Producer”

Drove in runs all fall — a team-high 26 RBI on a .533 average and .714 on-base. On the mound he was just as tough, holding hitters to a .143 average.
