Anyway Freddy's "Angels" (yes in quotes) played JD's Budweisers in a game that was unfortunately decided by attendance. JD's squad could only muster 7 players by the 9am deadline and so the point goes to Mr Gonzales who as you may know, lost several games last year by the same measure ... so karma?
Anyway we had enough pool players to play the game with fill ins from Ron Butler's BYE team to make a Home Team roster for substitute captain, Kirk Coffman to manage.
Captain Kirk's boys took the early lead with a Dave Doerbaum three run homer into the 25 knot wind after the visiting Angels posted 2. But that's about as close as Freddy's boys would get.
After 5 innings the score was 4 - 12 in favor of the Substitute JDs.
The Angels made a run at them though after coming up with 5 runs in the 7th to close the gap to 9-12 thanks to some solid hitting by Borrelli and Lopicollo followed up with a Constantine double and a series of base hits. Unfortunately, they left a couple of runners on when the rally died.
In the 8th the Home team posted 4 more on another 3 run Dave Doerbaum homer into the stiff wind. Dave hit the ball hard enough to travel 400 ft but into the wind it almost blew back into the park, falling just over the left field fence and out of the reach of Raul Torres.
The Angels went down with another zero frame in the ninth.
Final Score: Angels 10 - JDs 16.
Winning Pitcher: BJ Kallister
