Team Toro and Team Lopiccilo faced off  on field C. Team Toro and their bats could not be stopped as they scored in every inning except the fifth. Perhaps they were tired from running the bases in that inning. Team Lopicilo had only two bright spots as they did win the first inning by out scoring Team Toro 4 to 2 and then in the fifth inning when they managed five runs. It might have been worse if not for the flip flop run, denying team Toro their last at bat.
