ROGER’S HOT CORNER…………

Monday July 12…..10:14 a.m….No records reported on the whipping TEAM LEFTON gave to TEAM SILVERMAN, but one would figure a 33-12 score would yield a few…..to his credit captain RYAN SILVERMAN reported in after his team got clobbered (possibly a first for a losing captain to report in)….he gave credit where credit was due and just said, “they flat out took us to the woodshed and beat the crap out of us.”….hitting stars were aplenty (as one would imagine) as DEE HARRIS, TEDDY “BALLGAME” KANTOR, MARK “GORDY” GORDON and RICK SILVERMAN led the way…..SILVERMAN also added, “TEAM LEFTON has underachieved all year and they’re showing signs of life.”, this after beating two of the top teams in SILVERMAN and SCHWARTZ in back to back games….as for his team, RUSSELL WHITE and MARK LEVINE had key hits when the game was still close and DAVID “PETE ROSE” SNYDER is now two for two batting from the left side of the plate…..reports from the other three games hadn’t been reported as of press time……comments/questions…… r.rosenthal@fuse.net…….
