Wednesday June 17………11:54 p.m……..in the GAME OF WEEK……the two undefeated teams went at it and when the dust cleared TEAM WERNICK, behind stellar pitching, near perfect defense and timely hitting, defeated TEAM SCHWARTZ in a 1o run rule…….stars were aplenty for the victors, but pitcher JOHN BERG and catcher GARY ASKIN combined on a gem and JB outpitched his good buddy HOWIE SCHWARTZ……..JOHN SILVERMAN set the tone in the top of the first inning with an A+ web gem with a diving catch down the left field line……WILLIE WAXLER came up big with a few huge hits and the game ended on a A- web gem by DAVE WERNICK on another diving catch in right-centerfield…..all wasn’t great for TEAM WERNICK as ROGER ROSENTHAL made a STUPID base running blunder late, but fortunately for him and his team, the game was well in hand……kudos must also go out to STEVE OSTROW, who delivered a pre-game motivational speech (aired live on ESPN2)……….late kudos go out to MARC TESSEL, who two weeks ago hit a long homerun vs. TEAM WERNICK……..other games NOT reported at press time…………any comments, etc. can be sent to me at r.rosenthal@fuse.net……..
