CFL Reporting – Team Lefton Undefeated in the 2nd Half!
Team Lefton aka “The Green Machine”, wins by a 5 run margin! The Lefton boys hit the cover off the 40 stitch ball! Outstanding defense, great pitching and speed. I mean speed on the bases.
Dee Harris, Mike” Crawling” Creemer and Teddy Ballgame all raced around the bases like Drew Stubbs!
Billy Kahn had an oustanding night at the plate, he had couple of hits and ate a large pizza after the game. Gordy sucked. He did not get a hit but played ok defense, too many Gatorades, I think.
Billy did announce to CFL that he would retire at the end of the season to” spend more time with the family”. We will see how that plays out.
Is Team Lefton a force to reckoned with? The Team of destiny? Can they win the 2nd half? Will they go undeafeated? NOPE! Are you kidding me! But… they will bury Team Eppstein next week or I’ll buy Team Eppstein’s team wings! Good night!
CFL Reporting – Team Lefton Spreads Their Wings!
Team Lefton was in a word, Awesome! 7 orders of chicken wings! Every one crossed the plate. Weez had a couple of doubles, Dee Harris has 11 straight singles. When the chips were downed the bottom of the line-up came through and ordered some more!
Now on to the game. Team Lefton must love the heat, because they have won every game when the temperature at game time is above 90. It was a 10 run affair, a brutal unforgiving punishment to Team Kirzner. Why? In a word,PITCHING! It was sad to see. The many time All-Star Mark Weisser, just looked overwhelmed. The team provided outstanding defense at each position, for pitcher Weisser, too. Dee Harris of Team Lefton found the holes in the defense with 4 straight hits! He now has 11 straight hits in the last 2 games. Jumbo Lefton was super, he walked only one and struck out 6 with is new slider! Team Lefton now takes on the fading Team Gritty Grefer. Should be another slaughter! Stay tuned!
