Hogs Open with Double Header Sweep!
Are the Hogs the Best ??
By Areno

Opening Day 2025 ! We had an abundant turnout of Hog enthusiasts consisting of the old guard, active players, rookies and of course our fans, all eager to participate in the Hog Experience. 

2025 is our 46th consecutive softball season, the longest running softball team in America.

Areno, the ceremonial choice for the leadoff batter, started the game drawing a walk, and opening the flood gates that followed. His 46th season, and yes, next year he promises to get a life. He was unable to secure a courtesy runner because we had to save that substitution for Nixon. (really ?)   


Still Hasn’t Got a Life

Zip, the founder of the Hogs and curator of the wildly popular Hogs Encyclopedia, followed and how can I say this delicately... advanced the runner into scoring position. Pung our resident OG and designated 'Hog Photog' captured that hitting clinic on video to the delight of many viewers. Precious! and still available for viewing on demand.


Put on a Hitting Clinic

Anyway, Booch followed with a BB, setting the stage for the first Hog hit of the season. Straw did not disappoint with his first of two 4-baggers on his way to a 5 RBI game. Booch scoring his first of a 3-run game.

Our team manager and HHoF'er Crew booked a hit and an RBI onto the scorecard, possibly setting the early stage for another Triple Crown run.


Another Triple Crown?

Rhino picked up a couple hits and runs scored, and a coveted outfield assist. Both Noel and Nixon each scored 3 times. Cricket had 3 clutch RBI's. Willy also made his presence known crossing the plate twice with 2RBI's. Kauff (with 2F's) only reached base once after two monster fly balls to the catcher, but was unable to score. Erik (EE) was electrifying on the base paths as usual, scoring and picking up 2 RBI's. 

The rookies Jake B. and Jake S. (no relation to the Allstate guy) pretty much cancelled each others' stats for bragging rights and ROY points each scoring and knocking in a run.


2025 Hog Rookies

A side note: Straw deliberately swung at ball 4 to avoid taking a walk during his second AB. He followed with his 2nd HR of the night, launching a bat-flip for the ages toward the bench before morphing into a 'Schwarberish' home-run trot. In a back-handed insult to this journalist in a post-game interview he stated, “I didn't come all the way from West Bradford to take a walk." ouch! 


2 Homers, 5 RBIs

The Hog's scored 16 runs in the third inning on our way to a 22-4 blowout of PXL. Looks like more memories are coming our way compliments of the Phoenixville Softball League.

Post game refreshments were supplied by The Grid Iron (Home of the Hogs!) 


Are the Hogs the Best? ...Boy I guess !!
