The finals are set for Wednesday night with the first pitch at 6:01 p.m. with an unknown person to throw out the first pitch……the game will be carried on WJCC with the play by play and color analysis by STEVE JARNICKI and ROGER ROSENTHAL……..pre-game start at 5:30 p.m. with a look recapping the life of RON ROSE, the 83-year old ageless wonder……
Here’s to a good game and good luck to both teams!!!!!!

The BLOG usually does NOT give an opinion, but here’s one……
The JCC Softball League Commission has got to look at how the playoffs are set up……..Two suggestions…..
1. Take the top six teams and have the # 1 and # 2 seeds get first round byes…..
ROUND 1……
# 3 seed plays # 6 seed…………# 4 seed plays #5 seed…….
ROUND 2 (SEMI-FINALS)…..
# 1 seed then plays the lowest seed and the # 2 seed plays the highest seed…….
ROUND 3 (FINALS)…..
the winners then play for the tournament title……
2. Have it the way it is now, but re-seed after each round……….
