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.

“He came back from (the) Habener’s last week and all he could talk about was Dr. Habener,” Acker said. ‘He couldn’t shut up about the Ferrari ....
