 RECAP FOR THE WEEK OF AUGUST 10-13

TUESDAY, AUGUST 10TH

Rained out today. Hope to play on Friday.


FRIDAY, AUGUST 13TH

Another well played mixed 3 team game. Books were kept quite well which brings me to list the hitters first. 
4 hits - Spitaleri and Boswell
3 hits - Santa, Rusty, Wally, Hicks, Laffoon
             Gutenberg
2 hits - Morton, Herbie M, Marino, Kniery
             Manny, DeRidder, Bill T, Kevin G, Ayers
             Myers, Capozzi
Ralph Boswell also hit a 3 run HR

The managers were Capozzi, Witmer and Spitaleri   The Witmer team jumped out strong 13-5-4 after 4 innings and it looked like a runaway at first - but, this is Senior Softball and  we all know, anything can happen. Capozzi team got the nickel in the third and didn't score again till the open inning and plated 2 more for a total of 7. Witmer team scored 3 more in the 6th and did not have to bat in the 7th. The Spitaleri team put on a rush with 5 in the 5th and tried hard in the open 7th to catch up but came up with 4, in need of 6 to tie. Hence, the Witmer team did not have to bat in the 7th. 
Final score  Witmer 15, Spitaleri 13 and Capozzi 7
Best play of the game was turned by Bobby Reagan playing RF for the team with only 11 players when he charged in on a dying quail, snagged it off his shoe tops, tumbling to the ground losing everything but the ball, tucked snuggly in his glove.
