June ’22 21
A pair of doubles completely rewrote French baseball’s Pool A standings, with Savigny-sur-Orge moving into a tie for first place and claiming the best winning percentage in the division. Meanwhile, the Montigny Cougars swept the hapless PUC to carve out a share of the top spot in the standings. Only one series was played in Pool B, Montpellier posting twisted numbers at both ends of their twinbill with Nice Cavigal.
Summary
The Lions rose to the top of the division in resounding fashion, claiming a 7-5 win in the opener with defending champions Rouen, Savigny leading his winning streak to six as the clubs nearly doubled the score of game 1 in a 7-4 victory in the nightcap. The Huskies have lost three straight games. Montigny continued to show they are a title contender with 10-0 and 3-1 wins and are the first Pool A club to claim double-digit wins.
The Barracudas moved on even with the La Rochelle Boucaniers in Pool B with an 11-5, 18-3 sweep of Nice, who gradually increased their attacking output, but still average just 2.2 points per game . The MUC has the best attack in French baseball, with its 29 points on the DH, bringing its average production to exactly eight points per game. Montpellier and La Rochelle are one match behind the Sénart Templiers, scheduled for the weekend off.
