Summer Bash Game


Share the Love Baby!



Today 34 players came prepared to do  battle for the right to get first in line for the sub sandwiches and drinks provided by the league. Today' game proved very interesting because the best team on paper struggled on both ends of play. The game started by Team Wells scoring five quick runs and scored every other inning to pull out the victory. They led wire to wire.Team Diaz got runners on base in the first three innings only to have their hopes dashed by inning ending double plays each time. The fourth inning saw them score five runs on  successive singles.Team Powell scored two runs in the first inning and then were virtually shut down by Team Diaz until the seventh. They only managed to score four runs on five total hits. The game ended on what can only be described as the catch of the day by Ron Butler. Jimmy Lafffoon hit a rocket with two outs and two runners on base. At the crack of the bat Ron broke to his right and while fully extended parallel to the ground, managed to hold on for the game ending catch and preserving the win for Team Wells.


Final Score  Team Wells 14    Team Diaz 9     Team Powell 4

Outstanding players
Kirk Coffman    3 for 4
Wayne Mundy    3 for 4
Ron Butler        4 for 4 with  the catch of the day
