GAME REPORTS FROM LAST NIGHT’S ACTION……

WERTHEIM, GUTTMAN COMBINE FOR EIGHT HITS AND SCHWARTZ PITCHES A GEM IN

VICTORY…….

TEAM SCHWARTZ defeated TEAM GROH, 12-1, in a must win game…..TEAM GROH was trying

to wrap up the first half title, while TEAM SCHWARTZ was trying to stay in the title race….

The victors jumped out to an early lead and never looked back as they played their best game of the

season as everyone chipped in either on offense or defense or in some cases, both…..

HOWARD SCHWARTZ pitched as close to perfect as possible in giving up only two hits and

walking none, while PETE SPOERL, a Xavier University Hall of Famer, played a flawless 3B and

had a few base knocks, however the “big” star was DAVID WERTHEIM, who was battling a slump

earlier in the year, came up with a perfect 4 for 4 at the plate…..JERRY KIRZNER played a solid

1B…..ROGER ROSENTHAL was solid at 2B…..ZAC SWADNER played a nice SS in place of the

vacationing MIKE  ROTHSTEIN….COREY NORRIS and RYAN SMALL played well in the outfield

and came thru with some timely hits and finally, DAVID SOLOMON “called” a great game behind

the plate……Super Sub BRANDON GUTTMAN was 4 for 4 and used his superman speed to run the

bases…..ALAN LESSURE was out with an injury, but still was part of the win as he coached third

base……

FIRST HALF TITLE STILL UP FOR GRABS……

Three teams are very much in contention for the first half title and a fourth team is still

mathematically in the hunt, but needs a lot of help…..

TEAMS GROH, LEADER and SCHWARTZ are all 5-2 entering the last week of first half play…..the

tiebreaker is head to head play and in this case GROH has beaten LEADER…..LEADER has beaten

SCHWARTZ and finally, SCHWARTZ has beaten GROH…..IF the first half ends in a tie, then there

would be a three way tie for the title…..TEAM LEFTON, 5-3, would need all three teams to lose to

have a chance…..STAY TUNED!!!!!!
