ROGER’S HOT CORNER…………

Thursday August 14………..2:51 p.m………….Team Eppstein vs. Team Harris for Pink Shirt Honors Update……..Team Eppstein took a huge step towards NOT “winning” it by defeating Team Gordon 11-4 behind the stellar pitching debut of COREY NORRIS (another Red Sox fan)…….veteran stud DAVE WERNICK finally played up to his multi-million dollar contract with a multi-hit game and some outstanding plays in the field and BEN HELDMAN, son to ANDY HELDMAN, and definitely the better of the two, came up with some nice defensive palys plus a bases clearing triple in a pivital eight run sixth inning……..Game balls went to both WERNICK and NORRIS with honorable mention to HELDMAN……meanwhile, Team Harris took it on the chin again, losing to Team Glassman 10-5………..with two games left Team Harris looks doomed to “win” the Pink Shirt………NO MORE GAME REPORTS TO GIVE AS THE CAPTAINS ONCE AGAIN HAVEN’T REPORTED IN AS REQUESTED……. if a player on a team wants to report in, feel free to do so……….. r.rosenthal@fuse.net……………

Thursday August 7…………10:00 a.m………..Kudos go out to DAVID FOX as Team Kirzner defeated Team Harris 11-7……..the veteran righthander (that means you’re OLD) pitched, fielded and hit like a true pro…..NO official count on assists, but it had to be about six or seven and just ONE walk……….Team Eppstein lost again…………this time to Team Newman and is still in the running with Team Harris for the infamous Pink Shirt!!!!!!!……..Team Schwartz defeated Team Glassman and one JEFF “little fink” FINKELSTEIN was NOT a happy camper after the game as he was a tad upset and let anyone who wanted to listen to him (me) know about it………it seems that he’s upset about the drafting of his team and was NOT afraid to speak out……..Are you listening Softball Commission????????………Team Grefer continued to “dominate” as they whipped up on Team Gordon……..again, team spokesman STEVE OSTROW wouldn’t comment to The Blog unless he/it would take his Xavier cap off……..Kudos also go out to two fans (I think from that school up in Dayton that Xavier always seems to beat in basketball) for filling in for an absent umpire…..rumor has it they did a GREAT job…….maybe they’re onto something!………do the young guys know that way back in the day, the league had volunteer umpires?……….LENNY LOEB made a return after being out a few weeks with an undisclosed ailment…….Welcome back!……… r.rosenthal@fuse.net ………….
