Untouchaballs vs. Ballsagna

Ballsagna got the scoring started with a 3-run HR in the bottom of the first by Mat Peterson. Untouchaballs got warmed up and scored their first run in the top of the 3rd inning with a Mike Pettis double. Untouchaballs plated another run in the top of the 5th inning on a RBI single from Matt.  However Ballsagna extended their lead back to three runs by the end of the 6th inning with fancy footwork and pep in their step!!  Although Untouchaballs got a 2-run HR from Thomas Riggie in the top of the 7th inning it wasn't enough to close the gap. The play of the day goes to the Untouchaballs' Michelle Wood who made a spectacular diving catch in right field...nice job Michelle!!  You can see her pick on Facebook!!!   Ballsagna 6, Untouchaballs 4.

Hose Draggers vs. Kevin Bacon

This was a very close game as both teams played stellar lockdown defensive!! Hose Draggers took a one run lead in the top of the 2nd inning when Chad Ferrier crossed the plate...then sat down for a well needed breather...nice job Chad!!!  Kevin Bacon tightened their defense up after that and the game remained 1-0 until the top of the 7th inning. Hose Draggers were able to plate 2 more runs and extend their lead...Chad Ferrier finished with a shutout and the win.  Hose Draggers 3, Kevin Bacon 0.

Dice vs. Shinobi Dragon Ninja

Dice started their season off with four runs in the top of the 1st inning...oh boy!!!  Dice firepower is back AND on Sunday Funday...love it!!  Two of those runs were driven in off a John Anderson ba-ba-blast!!  Dice may had increased their lead but Shinobi's Nick Schnurr stopped the heavy hitters with an unassisted double play...great job Nick!!  Shinobi was stymied by the wicked loft style pitching by Ashleigh Feller but did score their only run in the bottom of the 2nd inning. Dice showed the Ninja's it's not about the huge bombs but about ball placement and scored more in the 5th and 6th innings to extend their lead. Dice 10, Shinobi Dragon Ninja 1.

Booze on First vs. Fresh Kicks of Ball Air

Booze on First went to the plate first in this game and was able to score two runs. Kicks then were able to tie the game up with single runs in the first two innings. Then in the bottom of the 3rd inning Fresh Kicks broke up the game with six runs. Nate Trujillo had a RBI single and Joe "the half tard" (his team's words, not ours) had a 2-run single. Booze would make a great push in the top of the 7th inning to come back but came of a few runs short.  Fresh Kicks of Ball Air 8, Booze on First 5.

After School Special vs. Roshambo

Roshambo's Steven Gerglund set the tone for the game first with his sexy looks, 2nd by pitching a great first inning and 3rd by booting a RBI in the bottom of the 1st.  That's trifecta sexiness Steven...ver nice!!!  After giving up more runs in the 2nd and 3rd innings, After School Special turned on the defense with an amazing double play from Matt Williams...with that kind of name...we would expect nothing less!! Roshambo then scored four more runs in the bottom of the 4th to make the lead 7-0. After School then scored their only run of the game in the top of the 5th inning. Roshambo got another good play when Kevin Clough turned a triple play in the 6th inning....whoooowat???  A triple play??  Nice job Kevin!!   Roshambo 8, After School Special 1.

My Balls Just Dropped vs. Star Spangled Hammered

This game had a whole bunch of action and six lead changes. The scoring started in the bottom of the 1st with a Ron Height solo home run for the Star's. Dropped took their first lead in the top of the 2nd inning with two runs. They then plated two more runs in the top of the 3rd to make it 4-1. The Star's got their offense in gear and scored four of their own runs to take the lead 5-4. Dropped would not be out done and scored three runs in the top of the 4th inning off a Pete Mangold home run...way to be clutch Pete!!  Star's kept their fight alive by tying the game in the bottom of the 4th at seven runs a piece. Dropped once again took the lead with another run in each of the next two innings. With the score at 9-7 in favor of Dropped, the Stars went to the plate in the bottom of the 7th inning. After scoring two runs to tie the game, Ron Height came up and belted the game winning RBI single.
