We had an interesting three team game today. Steve Hill managed the fielding team, Ron Pepin the hitting team, and Dave Rounds the sitting team. The first two teams did not score in the first inning, but, true to form, Steve's guys put up five runs and the shouts of "stacked team" resounded throughout the park. But as the old saying goes, "that's why we have to play the entire game. Ron's boys never really got going  as they were shut out in six of the seven innings. Meanwhile, Team Rounds  plugged away and was only trailing by two runs in the fifth. Team Hill had scored five runs in two of their innings and was coasting along with a slight lead. The sixth inning was key to the outcome of the game. Pepin and his guys failed to score again while Team Rounds put up three big runs to take the lead as Team Hill was shut out. The seventh and deciding inning was exciting. Unfortunately Team Pepin went three and out, while Team Rounds had six batters come to the plate but were also unable to score. That left Team Hill with a chance to pull out the victory with the top of the line up coming to bat. With one out and one man on, Ray Howard made two amazing catches looking directly into the sun and ended the game. Final score: Team Rounds 13, Team Hill 12, and Team Pepin 3.
