Straits Sliders beat Fabe's Flyers today 19-12 in a see saw game till the 7th inning. It was fun. Fabian didn't have much for hitting but here they are. Junior Ortiz 3-4, Arvell Waddell, 3-3 and Thompson 2-4. Top of the order for Strait was amazing and did win the ball game. Boswell 4-5 HR. Dampier 4-5. Laffoon 5-5 as usual. Joe L. 4-5 and Sam Lopez 4-5. Then it went down to Gene Baker who was 2-4. I think he's getting younger. 

Larry Strait had so many pop catches at 2nd base i couldn't keep track and Johnny Merritt caught one in RF running to the foul line in the last inning. Way to go Johnny. 

Maybe not the best play of the game but strangest I have ever seen, was Junior Ortiz playing 2nd base and Fabian playing middle. A liner was hit between them and both got gloves up for it. Junior backhand and Fabian the other way. They both thought they had caught it or not. After looking around on the ground and in gloves discovered it was in Fabians glove. That was great. It wasn't on the ground so we figured one of us must have it. JUST ONE OUT.
