Two members of TEAM CRONSTEIN (NOT ADAM) reported in with their version of their 7-5 victory over TEAM GUTTMAN…..the following is a combination of both reports…….
First, it should be noted they’re the #1 seed for the upcoming tournament with an overall record of 11-5, but didn’t win either half……
In last night’s thriller, RABBI YITZI hit a home run and played solid defense, ADAM CRONSTEIN made a nice diving catch, MICHAEL ASKIN made a nice over the shoulder catch of a BRANDON GUTTMAN drive, JEFF “LITTLE FINK” FINKELSTEIN made some dazzling plays at SS reminding Cincinnati Reds fans of BARRY LARKIN……and finally, KEN GROH held the opposition scoreless the final five innings…..the MVP candidate was 11-2 for the season (take that JASON FAUST) and ended up hitting .700 (35 for 50) over the campaign……..

The play-in game between # 9 seed TEAM WEISBROT and # 8 seed TEAM ROSENTHAL is scheduled for this Sunday at 9:30 a.m……….

The tournament starts Wednesday night with the following match-ups…….

*#1 TEAM CRONSTEIN vs WINNER OF PLAY-IN GAME (WEISBROT VS. ROSENTHAL)

FYI………

We have a world class softball player amongst us in the softball league……can you guess who it is?
No, it’s NOT me!
It’s PETE SPOERL!!!!!!
Pete not only plays in the JCC league, but plays a handful of games per week for an Ohio team that takes softball to the next level.
Playing with a bunch of guys about half his age (Pete isn’t that old, he’s 54 years young), he participated in the International Softball Congress Fast pitch Tournament in Kitchener, Ontario Canada recently.
Playing mainly as a designated hitter and sometimes first baseman or third baseman for the Westerville, Ohio Capitals, his team captured second place in their division after being eliminated earlier on in the preliminary round.
Spoerl, a three sport star (baseball, basketball and football) at Hamilton Badin also is in not one, not two, not three, but four Hall of Fames…..the Hamilton Badin High School, Xavier University, Butler County and State of Ohio.
Way to go PETE SPOERL!!!!!!!!!!
