Chicago Bandits Series #2 vs Chinese Taipei

The Chicago Bandits finished out their second home series with a 2-2 game tie vs Chinese Taipei (CT) and we recorded all the ups and downs. Despite a rocky first two games, the Bandits were able to pull the series to a tie with two strong showings to close out the series. Timely RBI hits by Vicky Galindo, Mackenzie Vandergeest, and Jaime Clark were just some of the players to help get the job done against CT. Pitcher/first baseman Jennie Finch made her season debut to the delight of many Chicago Bandit fans and she even threw out the first pitch in game 2 with newborn son, Ace.

The documentary footage continued at full speed with interviews from Chicago Bandits owner Bill Conroy, head coach Mickey Dean, right fielder Trena Peel, and second baseman Anne Steffan. We're looking forward to interviewing all your favorite Chicago Bandit players throughout the rest of the season.

Chicago Bandits Series #1 vs Venezuela

This past weekend (June 1-4) the Bandits started off their season with a series against the Venezuelan National team and we were there to cover all the action. The Bandits showed that they have all the right stuff to accomplish their goal of a NPF national championship title. The pitching artillery of Peaches James, Amy Harre, Gina Oaks, and Jessica Salinger allowed only 15 hits and 6 runs over the course of the four game series. Powerful and timely hitting by the Bandits was another key factor to all their victories. Shortstop Jaime Clark recorded the first and second homeruns of the season.

Not only were we there to capture all the game action, but we interviewed some of your favorite Bandit players to be included in this season’s documentary. The interviewees included former Olympian Jennie Finch, leadoff hitter Vicky Galindo, homerun hitter Jaime Clark, and winning pitcher Peaches James.
