TUESDAY'S GAMES

Before recapping this morning's games, I want to remind everyone that the Hall of Fame Banquet is tomorrow night starting at 05:30. The induction ceremony will begin promptly at 6:00. Directions are on the back of your ticket.

On field one, we pitted the two field managers against each other since they played to a tie last week. Well, after today's game, there is no doubt who came out on top. Team Wiliamson took a four run lead in the first and never looked back.. Team Marino only managed to score in three of the nine innings. It might have been closer if they hadn't ended three innings with the bases loaded and two other innings where the stranded two runners. Team Williamson was consistent, scoring in all but two innings. While their bats were hot, their run production was aided by some less that stellar defense by Team Marino.The final score was Team Williamson 15 and Team Marino 7

Team Spitaleri faced off against Team Ouding on Field Two. Team Spit trailed by two after the first inning but took the lead in the second. They extended the lead to two in the third, where it remained until the seventh as each team matched the other in runs scored in each inning. Both scores scored multiple runs in the seventh, but Team Spit extended the lead to three runs..The close games disappeared as Team Spit outscoreed Team Ouding by four runs in the eighth and opening up a seven run lead. Fortunately Team Ouding went three and out to end the game. Final score Team Spitaleri 15 and Team Ouding 8.

Friday Games Recap

On Field one we pitted the equipment managers against each other. Richie Marino faced off against Jim Williamson. Richie surprised everyone by starting himself at shortstop and batting clean up, then proudly announcing to the field "Take that sucker". Actually the game turned out to be very exciting as the outcome of the game was not decided until the last batter came to the plate. Jim's team took a three run lead in the first, lost it in the third, regained it in the fourth and held a three run lead going into the eighth. In the eighth Marino's Yankees(?) scored three tying up the game. In the ninth inning each team managed only one hit and since it wasn't over the fence, the score remained as it was in the eighth...10-10. We will allow them to try again on Tuesday to determine the winner of the Equipment Manager Shootout.

Outstanding Performances

Rabineau 5-5

Ott 4-5

Johnston 4-5

Tutrani 5-5

On Field two, two experienced managers faced off. Dave Rounds squared off against Don Ouding.  The box score is very reminiscent of the other game as Don's guys took the early lead and then lost the lead the next inning when Dave's boys scored four in the second while shutting Don's team down. In the fifth, Don's guys shut down Team Rounds and scored four themselves. In the sixth inning, both teams put up multiple runs resulting in a ten to ten tie. The next three innings however, saw the Rounders outscoring Don's guys by 11 runs to take a a decisive lead. Final score Rounders 20, and Ouding's team 9.

Tuesday

Two pretty interesting games today.  One was pretty much decided by the 5th inning, team Ouding was up 14-4 over team Rounds and the final was 22-9.
The other field featured team Toro vs team Keller. Toro led 2-0 after 1 inning and and 2-1 after 2 innings. From there on both teams put up goose eggs and never had more than 2 base runner in an inning helped much by at least 6 inning ending double plays. Final score of 2-1.

We had perfect weather for today's games. Freddie Dampier came up with some original names for the Teams on Field 1. He named Juan Toro's team the bulls and his team the Peirs. So in the first inning, both the Bulls and the Piers scored four runs. The Bulls fell behind as they were shut out in four of the next six innings. While this was occurring, the Piers scored three or more in every inning but the sixth.  So at the end of seven, it was the Piers 21 and the Bulls 10. The Bulls rallied in the eighth and ninth innings, scoring five in each, but it was not enough. Final score Team Dampier 24 and Team Toro 20.

Don Keller managed the visiting team against Team Tutrani on field two. It looked like a blowout early on for the Dons guys. built a 12-6 lead after four innings.Mark's bats came alivein the fifth and sixth innings, closing within two. Both teams exchanged runs, so at the end of eight it was Keller 17 and Tutrani 15. Team Keller needed a big inning as Team Tutrani had the top of the lineup coming to the plate. Well, Team Keller got the big inning, sending all eleven players to the plate and scoring seven runs. The first four batters for Team Tutrani hit and scored. Unfortunately it ended three outs later. Final score Team Keller 24 and Team Tutrani 19.
