The Martha’s Vineyard Sharks moved to a 10-8 season record after an up-and-down week of play. They are now in fourth place overall in the Futures Collegiate Baseball League and second in their division.
An evening set to honor the base-stealing, RBI-hitting lefty and 2009 graduate of the regional high school had an unexpected interruption Saturday. Tad Gold took a call on his cell phone. He had just been drafted by the Baltimore Orioles.
It’s hard to imagine warm summer nights on these cold spring days, but they’re coming.
And in less than a month, the new collegiate baseball team, the Martha’s Vineyard Sharks, will take to the field at the Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School.
To warm up the Vineyard crowd, the Sharks will have a fundraiser dinner for the field and Vineyard baseball on Saturday at Sharky’s Cantina in Edgartown with former Red Sox player Bill Buckner. The dinner starts at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $45.
