*TEAM SCHWARTZ continued their dominating ways by defeating a depleted TEAM WEISBROT team in a continuation game from the first half and then the regularly scheduled second half game…..defense and timely hitting paved the way for the victors….kudos go to ALAN LESSURE, who replaced RON ROSE, the CAL RIPKEN of the JCC league, behind the plate , BOB BONNER at third base and Super Sub MATT STEINBERG at shortstop……ALAN COHEN had several clutch hits and son JACK COHEN did his SCOTT WOLF impresson with some great base running…..as for TEAM WEISBROT, they will try to snap out of their losing ways next week in a “key” game vs TEAM WAGNER……a game to be aired on ESPN U with GUS JOHNSON and BILL RAFTERY doing the broadcast…….
**TEAM GREFER defeated TEAM GUTTMAN, 6-4, as sub JAMIE KIRTZER pitched a gem and the defense was solid……GARY GREFER and DANNY GREFER had key hits, but the play of the game was when DANNY GREFER turned a double play off the bat of BRANDON GUTTMAN with the bases loaded to end the game…….
***TEAM LEADER was on the front end of the scoreboard again as they posted a 13-3 win over the slump-riden TEAM CRONSTEIN……BARRY KAPLAN was in complete control as his fastball was clocked at 97 mph and the defense was solid…..ANTON LOOOOOOOOON was 2 for 3 with three runs scored, captain GREG “THE SPIDERMAN” LEADER was 2 for 4 with three runs scored and SCOTT BERGE was 3 for 3 with two runs scored……
GET WELL WISHES GO OUT TO RON ROSE, WHO HAD MINOR SURGERY AND WAS HELD OUT OF ACTION LAST NIGHT……
FYI…….Rumor has it that ROGER ROSENTHAL actually shook hands after NOT one, but two games…….at presstime, ROGER’S HOT CORNER was still investigating the rumor…….
