Tuesday, September 25th
We managed to field 4 teams for the first time in a while when 38 players showed up to play ball today. The American League had to borrow a player from the National League to field 9 players on each team. The Commish played catcher and umpired for both teams. It was a great game with the lead changing just about every inning. Finally, at the top of the 9th inning, the home team was leading 16-15. The visitors, headed by Bob Zelazny, decided they had enough and plated 8 runs to take an big lead going into the bottom of the ninth. The home team, headed by JD Davis, was not going to be outdone. The put their hitting shoes on and scored 7 runs with two outs. With the scored tied at 23 all, and the winning run at second base, Ralph Boswell hit a line drive in the gap in left field to drive in the winning run. Thanks to Robert Spitaleri for playing with the American League.
