WINNERS/LOSERS FROM SUNDAY JULY 15….
First to report in is………..
LEFTON 14 SCHWARTZ 13
reported by ROGER ROSENTHAL
In what was one of the more exciting games of the season, TEAM LEFTON never gave up and came
back from a six run deficit late in the game and plated the tying and winning runs in the bottom of the
7th inning on a two run walk off home run over the right field fence off the bat of JIMMY
LEFTON….MIKE ROTHSTEIN notched his second victory of the season as he started on the hill….
The whole team contributed offensively, but in particular the bottom of the batting order……ROGER
ROSENTHAL, EDDIE GALLOP and AARON KAPLAN all had key base knocks, but rookie
BRAD GALLOP had two triples including one late in the game which was a key in the comeback…..
Defensively, the play of the game was turned in by DAVID WERTHEIM, starting his first game at
SS….the bases were loaded with two outs when a line drive was hit to 3B ROSENTHAL who
knocked it down, only to have WERTHEIM grab it and force the runner at home….what a play!!!!!
In other action……
HIUDT 13 BRAFMAN 3
reported by MARC BRAFMAN
TEAM BRAFMAN got taken behind the woodshed by the ZACH ATTACH (sic)….
The losing captain said afterwards, “When the highlight of the game happens on a bouncing grounder
to third on the first play of the game you know you’re in for a long day.”
“Give credit to Zach and his team as they came out and pounded us early”, Brafman added.
Not many noteworthy notes, but JASON “THE MAD HUNGARIAN” FAUST had a couple of hits as
did AARON COMPTON and BRAFMAN.
Defensively, JEREMY “HAMILTON” FOGEL continued his gold glove work in LCF while LEON
“THE BULL” SESERMAN showed off his smooth footwork and arm in the first inning.
