Jackets' Season Finale
Rained Out
BELLINGHAM
— The Kitsap BlueJackets
finished off the West Coast
League season Saturday without
ever getting on the field.
Steady rain during the day
forced the league to cancel
Kitsap’s final game against
Bellingham. With neither team in
the playoff hunt, it didn’t make
sense to bring the teams back
for a game today.
“It was
kind of a league decision,”
Kitsap coach Matt Acker said.
The BlueJackets (24-23)
finish in fourth place in the
WCL’s West Division, a game
behind Bellingham (25-22).
Kitsap lost seven of its final
10 games to fall out of the
playoff picture.
Acker
was hoping his team could get on
a hot streak and challenge for a
playoff spot with the season
winding down, but it never came.
“We played consistent all
year,” Acker said. “The
onlything we didn’t do is go on
a long winning streak. At the
same time, we didn’t go on a
long losing streak. We were
consistent, which is what we
asked the players to do. We had
a chance.”

McNamara a Special Special
Olympian
The BlueJackets surprised
McNamara before Wednesday’s game
against Wenatchee by presenting
him with a jersey and honoring
him for his service to the
summer team. For six years,
McNamara’s operated the
electronic scoreboard from the
“bunker” behind homeplate. He
knows that scoreboard better
than anybody, says Peterson, who
now operates the concession
stand at the Fairgrounds
complex.
BlueJackets’
players and coaches all took the
time to shake his hand as he
made his way off the field.
McNamara was touched by the
surprise celebration.

Cars and Baseball
BlueJackets First Baseman's Passion
“I woke up a day later, but I was
out of it for the entire week. I
couldn’t walk. It was a pretty bad
time. I went into full kidney
failure.”
Gagnon went from
almost dying to full recovery in
five weeks. Then just when he
thought the worst was over, things
went sour again. He played three
games and while batting against
Auburn High School the pitcher threw
a high-and-in fastball that
shattered his hand. He was out for
another five weeks.“It was just my
luck,” Gagnon said.
But as luck would have it — good
luck this time — Gagnon found this
summer a host family for his second
go-around with the BlueJackets that
caters to his taste for cars. Dr.
Stephen Habener is a collector and
he and Gagnon hit it off
immediately.
