Thursday July 16………….3:53 p.m……CORRECTION……it was JOSH LISMAN NOT LITMAN who hit the three-run homerun for TEAM LOOOOOOOOON………r.rosenthal@fuse.net………

Thursday July 16……..7:59 p.m……..the usual reliable report once again comes in from JOEL FOGEL about his team…….another loss in a high scoring affair vs. TEAM FRANKLIN….DAVID ”DEE” HARRIS once again pitched and is glad regular pitcher JAN BECKER will be back from rehab (check his ERA)……..also ANDY COHEN, now a father, will return to action……..rumor has it that TEAM FOGEL was late getting to their post-game meal as they were signing autographs after the game……they were giving fans a reported $2.50 for each autograph they signed……...r.rosenthal@fuse.net……….

Wednesday July 15…..11:47 a.m……….first off…..HAPPY BIRTHDAY to ADAM CRONSTEIN!!!!!…….games tonight wil be iffy because of the weather so be sure to check to see if games are on before heading to the ball park…….ESPN GAME OF THE WEEK is TEAM LOOOOOOON, coming off a tough loss last week, vs. TEAM WERNICK, off a bye, on Field 4……TEAM SCHWARTZ, 1-1, plays an undefeated TEAM GREFER at 2-0, and an improved TEAM EPPSTEIN, at 2-0, plays TEAM NEWMAN, 1-1,…….the other game are two winless teams with TEAM FOGEL vs. TEAM FRANKLIN…….I don’t know how others feel about the MLB All-Star game, but I think it’s a joke now…….the winner determines the homefield for the World Series regardless of records of the two teams……i.e. Los Angeles Dodgers could win 105 games and be playing the Texas Rangers with 90 wins……L.A. deserves home field…….it’s done in the other three major sports (except Super Bowl at neutral field)…….also, what happens if the game is A.) rained out, or B.) game is a one run game in the ninth inning when it starts to rain and the game is finally called…….real fair…….another point is if it means that much why should all the teams be represented and why not play the game to “win” meaning play it like a regular season game and play the best players the whole game…….any thoughts or comments can be sent to me at r.rosenthal@fuse.net ………………..

Thursday July 9……..12:47 a.m…….TEAMS GREFER, SCHWARTZ, EPPSTEIN AND NEWMAN were winners and undefeated TEAM WERNICK had a bye…….reports on games as they are received by the BLOG…….STAR SIGHTINGS…….WILLIAM FINKELMAN, longtime ex-scorekeeper of the softball and basketball leagues…….JEFF MILLER, longtime softball player……”WILLIE ”WEE” WAXLER and ROGER ”ROGZILLA” ROSENTHAL of TEAM WERNICK were scouting the games on their ”off” night………rumor has it that STEVE EPPSTEIN will boycott Silver Spring House if MONICA is NOT his personal server…….once again ”EPPY” treated his team to dinner after winning their second game in a row to start the second half……..r.rosenthal@fuse.net………

Thursday July 9………..9:17 a.m……….TEAM EPPSTEIN defeated TEAM KIRZNER, 8-7, as game balls were awarded to MATT STEINBERG and SCOTT ”SHORTY” ADAMS for their play……..STEINBERG tripled, homered and played well at shortstop, while ADAMS played a flawless second base…..kudos also go to JORDAN GUTTMAN who cranked a three-run homerun……….TEAM EPPSTEIN have won their first two games of the second half and it’s believed a lot of that has to do with captain STEVE EPPSTEIN treating his team to dinner after every win………hope he’s got a BIG bank account!!!!!!!!!! kudos also go to RYAN KIRZNER who cranked a homerun for TEAM KIRZNER………questions/comments, etc. can be sent to r.rosenthal@fuse.net……….
