Must be another softball game in central Florida as it was a FLIP FLOP again. After 8 innings Fabe's Flyers led 19-6 hence the flip flop. It was 7-6 after 2 innings but then Strait's Tigers put up goose eggs until the last inning with 2 outs and manager Larry Strait launched one over the left fielders head for his first ever home run making the final score 19-7. He enjoyed his beer at the legion on that one. Denny Schaffer had the catch of the game running to the fence, reaching up and feeling the ball thump into his glove. 

We had a new player, Cathy MacDonald who caught the whole game for the Flyers and made a fantastic play on a popper in front of the plate. It would have went foul but she hustled out and the ball ran into her left leg in fair territory and she calmly picked it up and fired a STRIKE to first base for the out. A lesson to all to run everything out. Welcome aboard Cathy. 

Tigers.       Duff Hill lead off HR, Schaffer 3-4, Dean Schapeler 3-4, Strait HR. 
Flyers.        Steve Hill 5-5, Dampier 4-5, Hartley 3-4, Fabian 3-4, BJ 3-4, Cathy 1-4 first WHSS first 
                  hit.
