In what was really a pitching and fielding duel, Team One parlayed a 6-1 lead after four into an 8-8 tie. Leave my sister out of this, it's not her fault.
Solid pitching by Bob Muegge and Chip Sharpe kept Team Five down for most of the game. But by not adding on, we gave them hope and in the top of the ninth, a sun-blinded fly ball was dropped, and it set things up for the tying run to come across. We couldn't answer in the bottom of the ninth, and it was kiss your sister again.
Lost in the shuffle was a very solid game by our infield - we must have turned three or four double plays. James 'Chewy' Little was in the middle of most, either starting a 6-11-3, or a 6U-3 or taking the throw from Rover Charlie Pastor. Bob Shipway and Ed Fieszli also had a hand and a glove it them, and Skip Spragens, playing out of position at the hot corner turned a couple of plays in.
Chewy, Paul Lisi, Art Miner and Skip led the way with three hits apiece. Art drove in more than half of our runs with five RBIs.
