So today was Double Header Day and from what I'm hearing, there were some pretty good games played today.. Read on:
First off we had LAKESIDE DERMATOLOGY vs McPHAIL'S AUTO:
Lakeside Dermatology played a double header today against McPhail's. We won one and lost one.
In the first game, an outstanding defense and Curt Glassman's pitching resulted in our 2nd win of the season, by the score of 13 to 1.
Our offensive highlights included:
Jeff Ayers 2 for 2, plus a walk.
Curt went 2 for 3 with a double and a single.
Vince Ferrer went 3 for 3.
Jack Nartker had a walk and 2 hits with 2 RBIs.
Mike Jones went 3 for 3.
Our offense was mostly absent in the 2nd game, except for Rod Lee's triple and Curt Glassman's home run over the scoreboard. We only managed 3 runs due in part to McPhail's turning 3 double plays.

VFW's first 4 batter's each had doubles in the first inning to help with the win
Leading hitters were Bobby Vasher with 5 hits and Billy Sorenson with 4 hits
With the great defense behind him, winning pitcher, Lester Osbeck pitched a great SHUTOUT game.
But hold on... Game TWO brought some life into the never give up Ben & Jerry's team as they roared out of the gate to take the lead.
With Ben & Jerry's having the hammer, the VFW team had to roll up their sleeves and dig in.
The top of the 6th inning proved to be eye opener with Manuel Martinez starting them off with a solid single to right field. More great batting followed and VFW managed to jump ahead and take the lead by 2.
Ben & Jerry's came up in the bottom of the 6th and were shut down by the VFW defense to hang on and win the game.
