Umm... that's Battle of the Board of Directors. The three teams in today's line-up were each managed by a member of your Board of Directors. Bob Zelazny managed the Hit Team of Rivera, Dampier, Schapler, Alumbaugh, Zelazny, Hite, Wells, Simon and Fulton. Ron Butler managed the Sit Squad of Chrest, Scarbrough, T. Smith, Edwards, Reagan, Jacobs, Butler, Thompson, Merritt and J.Smith. Freddy Gonzalez set the order for the Angels (Field team) with Coffman, Witmer, Gonzalez, Giordano, Lopez, Hill, Marino, Moots, and Baker.
It started out to be one of those slug-fest games with the Hit Team scoring 4 highlighted by Schapler and Alumbaugh going with back to back doubles. Then the Sit Squad posted 5 runs with a homer by Edwards and a Frank Jacobs triple. Freddy's Angels were not about to be left behind and posted 4 of their own off a raft of singles.
While it started out to be a batting contest only the Sit Team managed to sustain the pace and scored 5 runs in each of the first 3 innings to separate themselves from the pack. A homer by Terry Smith in the second and another by Bob Reagan in the third contributed to the high scorers lead. Meanwhile the Angels had nothing to celebrate over scoring 1 run in the same pair of innings and the Hit squad tried to hang in there as Brent Alumbaugh carried his team on the strength of his double and triple. In the fourth the sit team was the only team to score posting 2 runs.
After the 4th inning stretch the score was 9-17-5.
After the 4th inning the Sit Team pretty much cruised to 23 runs scoring in every remaining inning with Roger Edwards posting his second homer of the day in the 7th. The Angels (Field) tried to make a game of it, putting up 5 runs in the 6th but could only manage 2 in the final frame as did the Hit men.
Final Score: Zelazny (Hit) 12, Butler(Sit) 23 and Gonzalez(Field) 14.
