Tuesday, December 6th.
A very fine mixture of America and National League players with Don Witmer running the visiting Warriors and Bob Z running the home team Zephers. 
    I did not play because of an ailing right hip and knee and choose to rest it with league coming soon. Some others that have been ailing but keep pushing should think about that. I did do the umpire thing and thoroughly enjoyed it. Not a single disagreement. 
    Don's Warriors scored early and often and were ahead 17-5 after 5 innings, then a light came on for the Zephers as they got 8 in the 6th and 4 in the 7th to tie it at 17 all. What a come back. That's why it's called a game. 
    Then each team scored 1 in the 8th to keep it tied at 18. The visitors came to bat in the 9th and had a merry go round for 8 runs and the skies opened up with rain as the last out of the inning was made and all the games were called so this one ended in an 18-18 tie because the home team did not get their at bat. 
    Still need better score keeping and penmanship. There was one brand new player on each team. One was Don McCulloch who was 2 for 5 and the other was George Knox who was 1 for 4 with a walk and 2 runs scored. WELCOME NEW BALL PLAYERS. Hope ya'll had fun. If not its your fault.
