Kittens Stymie Offenders

Sea Kittens (3-0) continued its unblemished opening to the 2021 MSCR Kenosha League season with an 11-0 shutout of Players’ Olbrich Offenders (1-2) at Olbrich Park Wednesday night.  The Cats used a combination of timely-enough hitting and timely-enough defense to cruise to a victory that by many accounts could have been more lopsided. Joe Coffeecat Hennessy made his first start of the season for the Cats and quickly found himself in trouble in the first
