Fwd: January 24, Field D


History was made when this year's two rookie managers, Jerry De Ridders of the DeRailers and Mike O'Callaghan manning the Post 8 Legion.  

The Derailers jumped off to a roaring start, scoring 11 times to the Legion's 4, after 2 and a half innings.  Legion came to life scoring 7 times in the bottom half of the 3rd to tie at 11 each.  The slow start by the Legion was probably due to the players accepting Mgr. Mike's gusty move by sitting their star player, after his 0 for 5 performance in the previous game. 

From the 3rd on the Legion scored in each inning totalling 17 runs to the DeRailers 8.  Final score 28 to 19.
