The last week of regular season play………
*TEAM SCHWARTZ continued their torrid pace with a narrow 4-4 victory over TEAM LEFTON as key defensive plays were turned in by ALAN LESSURE, JACK COHEN and AARON COMPTON…..key hits came off the bats of ALAN COHEN, JOSH LISMAN and BOB BONNER…….
**TEAM LEADER roaring into the tournament with some momentum as they defeated TEAM ROTHSTEIN, 20-7…..BARRY KAPLAN led the way on the mound only to hand the ball to ace reliever MICHAEL “BUCKY” MARGOLIS to mop up the final innings…..two game balls were presented to SCOTT BERGE and MARK LEVINE, who both had “monster” games in the field as well as at the plate…….
***TEAM WAGNER came back from a 6-2 deficit late to knock off the slumping TEAM WEISBROT, 7-6, in a game that determined who would play in the Sunday play-in game….the victors jumped out to a 2-0 lead early only to have TEAM WEISBROT come back to take a 6-2 lead only to have pitcher MIKE GRAY leave the game because of an injury……DANNY “BOBCAT” SCHAAFF came in and did a nice job at the start, but then lost his control when after a hit off the bat of veteran BOB STEINBERG, he walked three of the next four batters and in between MATT STEINBERG hit a towering drive to deep right center field that went for a double…..after the dust had cleared it was 7-6 and that’s how the game ended……..
****TEAM GUTTMAN defeated TEAM CRONSTEIN, 13-8, AS RON “THE ROCKET” NASSIF hit his third grandslam of the season…..
