TEAM ROSENTHAL finally turned the tables last night as they were on the winning end of a walk-off victory…….after two walk-off losses this season, they defeated TEAM GREFER, 9-8, in a thriller…..
TEAM GREFER, behind the fine pitching of JAMIE KURTZER, built a 7-2 lead after 4 1/2 innings only to see the victors scrap back into the game by scoring four runs in the next two innings to make the score, 7-6, going into the final frame……after a Brandon LeBeau homerun extended the lead to 8-6, TEAM ROSENTHAL came back with a three spot in the bottom of the inning off relief ace KEN GROH, in large part by a “huge” base knock off the bat of DEE HARRIS that scored the tying run and then JOEL “SPARKY” FOGEL, fresh off a West Coast vacation, winning the game on a groundout to the right side that scored “courtesy” runner PETE SPOERL, running for the injured ROGER ROSENTHAL……
NEXT WEEK……WEATHER PERMITTING, THE SECOND HALF WILL BE COMPLETED WITH A MAKE-UP DATE, FOLLOWED BY THE PLAY-IN GAME (TEAM ROTHSTEIN VS. TEAM LEADER)……AND THEN THE FIRST ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS………STAY TUNED!!!!!
