Cuernavaca Park Field 1 (10:00AM)
Fresh Kicks of Ball Air (Green) vs. Hose Draggers (Red): With
two weeks left of regular play, teams really needed to walk away with a "W"
to help their placements for the 5280 Cup. Fresh Kicks has had a rough season, but their
main goal of having Sunday Funday in the park has definitely been accomplished. On the other hand, Hose Draggers has been playing strong all season and are ready to give Dice a run for their money on the 18th.
This game started out a little slow...it is Sunday morning, after all. The only run scored in the first came with the help of David Bayouth from Hose Draggers, driving in an RBI in the bottom of the inning. Hose Draggers put up another 2 in the second and continued to hold Fresh Kicks scoreless in the top of the inning. The fireworks didn't really start til the Keeton brothers both had RBI's in the third, allowing them to put up 4 more which brought the score to 7-0. Fresh Kicks really pumped up the "D" in the fourth and a lot of it was the pitching from Brandon Fraule. He had moves we've never seen - with 2 outs and 2 strikes, he made a stunning behind-the-back pitch for the final strike and the final out of the inning. Fresh Kicks finally got on the board in the fifth when Nick Schnurr had an impressive 2-run RBI. Unfortunately that was the only 2 they put up all day. Hose Draggers wins, 7-2.

Cuernavaca Park Field 2 (10:00AM)
Gone Rogue (Blue) vs. Ballsagna (Teal Blue): This was sure to be a close one, with both teams entering week 7 with similar track records. Gone Rogue started out the
top of the first inning with 2 runs scored, but when it was Ballsagna's turn, Matt Peterson marched right up and smashed a homerun to right field.
In the second, Ballsagna turned up the "D" and held Gone Rogue scoreless, then went on to put up 2 runs of their own via another Matt Peterson homerun in the bottom of the inning, giving them a 4-2 lead. In the top of the third, Gone Rogue came out supercharged and struck back. Gary Spetseris hit a run-of-the-mill single that, due to back-to-back errors, turned into a 2-run RBI. Ballsagna responded in the bottom with another 2 runs, giving them the lead by 2 again. In
the fourth, Ballsagna started pulling away. After Gone Rogue put up 1 in the top, Ballsagna responded with 4 runs of their own, now leading 10-5. Gone Rogue finally
stopped the bleeding in the bottom of the sixth with the help of Chelsea Cutter
- it was her quick hands that sealed the 3rd out at home plate to hold Ballsagna to 2 runs in the inning. In the top of the seventh, Gone Rogue was down and desperately needed 4 runs to keep the game going, but despite a great effort, they could only muster 2 runs. Ballsagna wins, 12-10
Cuernavaca Park Field 3 (10:00AM)
Mile High Club (Yellow) vs. Banzai Lightning (Neon Yellow):
Mile High came out shooting in the first when Justin Anderson had an RBI
double and Sam Sacher had a SAC fly. Banzai responded in the bottom of the
inning with some great base running from 2nd base to put up 1 run. In the bottom of the third, Justin Spanbauer from Banzai had a 2 run RBI single to give them the lead. Both
teams put the hurt on with the "D" in the fourth and no one scored, but
the fifth had a different story in mind. Patrick Dahnert had an SAC fly RBI to
right to bring in the "Batman" for Banzai. Then Mike Heugh had a beautifully
played 2-run RBI to put up another couple runs in the fifth, ending the inning at 6-2. In the sixth, Banzai went on a scoring spree with 4 runs scored after shutting out Mile High in the top of the inning, score now 10-2. Mile High needed a miracle in the seventh, and Ally McCoy accepted the challenge - she kicked an RBI single to give them hope, but it just wasn't enough to turn it around. Banzai wins, 10-3.
