Lefton…1
by ken groh
After holding the first-half champs to a Jeremy Fogel single, Team Groh started hot with a single by Marc Simons who scored on a double by David Wertheim. After a walk to Griff Harris, a double steal turned into 2 runs. Ken Groh singled and later scored on an RBI off the bat of Dee Harris, and the inning ended on a diving catch from Jeremy who robbed Jim Beckett of extra bases. The 4-0 lead held up as both teams struggled to get hits but Team Groh had two clutch 2-run 2-out singles off the bats of Ryan Small in the 3rd and Dee Harris in the 5th. Griffin scored 3 runs and Team Groh tied a JCC record with 0 errors en route to the 9-1 win. Groh stated after the game that he was proud of the Team! “We could have written the season off after the 1-5 start but instead kept competing with a great attitude and have come together as a team get back to 6-6. That shows great character and I respect that.”
To add to Brafman’s post from last week, Jason Faust added his name to the list of best excuses to miss a game as he called his captain prior to the game stating he couldn’t find his car…(hmmm?!?! Only the Mad Hungarian!)
