Team Newman sneaks up on Team Grefer
Team Newman played a nearly perfect game to knock off Team Grefer 8-7. Grefer jumped out to an early 4-0 lead, but Newman kept its focus and put up 6 runs in the 4th to take the lead for good. McCarthy had a 2 run HR and Greg Leader smashed a 3 run triple in the big inning. Newman then relied on its pitching and defense. Jimmy pitched a masterpiece keeping Grefer’s powerful lineup off balance all night. The defense came up with big play after big play lead by a perfect relay play to nail a runner at the plate.
