First Friday on the First

Today's game was the battle of the BoD nominees.  The hit team manager Bob Hite and the field team manager Jeff Simon are running for the BoD, while the sit team was managed by Don Witmer who is running for the Commissioner post.  

The hit team lived up to their namesake and scored in every inning except for the seventh and final inning. 16 runs in the first six innings was all they needed to secure the win. 

After the third inning the contest was for the silver medal.  Defense simply dominated as the sit team only scored 4 runs and the field team managed just 6 scores to take second place.
