On this date 11 years ago Sea Kittens notched its first walkoff win in team history, a dramatic and delightful 15-14 victory over Floyd & Donna’s Packer Inn. The Cats used 14 players in the game, hit three triples, blew a 13-7 lead, and won it when Boom Boom Magyera foiled an intentional walk and poked the game-winning hit to right field with two out in the bottom of the 5th. It was one of the earliest glorious and delightful moments in team history. Among really old-school stuff, Mama Cat was the starting
pitcher, Seahorse played first base, and Capt’n Coffeecat played rover before coming in to pitch. But all four of the original Cats who are still with the team- O’Brien, Hennessy, Magyera, and Sunshine Curtis- were there that mild and memorable summer eve.
