Zuni Park - Week 3 Highlights

Menace 2 Sobriety vs. Not In The Face:  When you hear the names like Loomis, Leonhardt, Mickael, and Phillips you’re instantly thinking, this is gonna be a good game.  Vegas had this game with no spread; you just needed to decide who was going to win this one!!  With both teams having years of experience and stellar defense we figured it might come down to whoever made the 1st error in this one.  The game was scoreless through 2 innings when this happened and Menace was the benefactor, of errors by Not In The Face, and their own aggressive base running scoring 3 runs in the 3rd inning to take a commanding lead.  Face answered with one run in the bottom of the 4th inning to bring the game to 3-1.  Mickael and Co. answered right back in the top of the 5th with 2 runs and 1 more in the 7th bringing the score to 6-1 going into the bottom of the 7th inning.  Not In The Face was feeling “rally time,” and brought their whole arsenal scoring 3 runs for a great comeback attempt, however it wasn’t enough to cover the deficit.  Menace 2 Sobriety wins 6-4.


Highlanders vs. Backdoor Ohoulihans:  Alysha Beckie had BO (that’s Backdoor Ohoulihans) on the board 1st in this one with a 2 RBI smack to take the early 2-0 lead.  It wasn’t until the 3rd inning when Highlanders started figuring out the snazzy pitching style of BO and who better to teach the team than Cappy Elliot Hasse?  Elliot started the scoring frenzy in the top of the 3rd inning with 2 RBI’s and Highlanders then scored at least 1 run every inning for the next 5 innings!!!  Way to lead the troops Elliot!!  In the top of the 4th inning, BO’s Mitch Lamke (also Cappy) kept Highlanders from scoring 2 runs by snagging an unassisted double-play, however Highlanders scored 7-runs in 5 innings and we’re only matched by 2 more from the talented Backdoor group.  Highlanders win 7-4.
