Friday, February 17th
It was a sunny day, temp. in the mid 70's.wind was from the North /East and light at 8 miles/hour, but who cares.

I want to talk about a good competitive game played between Simon's Yankees and Black's Nationals. After 5 innings the score was Nats 11 to 3. The Yankees put up 5 spots in both the 6th. & 7th. to take a 13 to 11 lead. The Nats came back with 4 in the 7th. and added 5 in the 8th.to hang on to a 20 to l6 final.

Numerous great defensive plays were made by both teams, none better than the catches made by

Dean Schapler in right field with the sun in his eyes.

Thanks to Ed Guspyt who pitched a good game replacing Hal Ridley nursing a strained brain, no sorry that should read sprained ankle.
