 Oct 2 - The Brakettes were well represented Sunday at the Danni Kemp Home Run Derby fundraiser held by the Kemp family and friends at Washington Field, Milford.
Reuniting with their teammate Danni, who all were excited to see, were Brakettes Amber Radomski, Denise Denis, Cassie Ruscz and Britt Lampert, with Amber (women's open winner), Denise and Cassie doing some hitting.
Former Brakette Barbara Reinalda and Brakettes' scorer Mark Dempsey assisted with the pitching, while Rob Baird and Ilan Woll webcasted the proceedings, with many interviews included. Brakettes' webmaster Harlan Gage attempted some home run swings.
Also showing support for Danni were GM Bob Baird, Manager John Stratton (photo), recently retired Brakettes' President Pat Sanders, and many other members of the Brakettes family.
Past and present Foran High School (Danni's alma mater, class of '15) softball and baseball players participated, with Casey McCone (class of '13) hitting the longest home runs of the day (wow!). Danni's close friend Fallon Bevino (class of '14) brought her Sacred Heart softball team in support, and also won the collegiate division women's trophy.
Pictures taken by Brakettes' photographer Kathy Gage can be found on Facebook and Shutterfly.
