Game Notes:
Vince Kissinger's wife, Danelle, was yawning during Game #1.
Vince passed up an Eagles game to play this week, but still had to pay $20.
John Peffer has Poison Ivy all over his glove hand and had to EH both games.
Vince was passing counterfeit $20 bills.
Pete Coldren and Keith Ream played for the bad-guys.

Game #2 Highlights:
Is there anything more satisfying than winning against a team when you are the clear-cut underdogs?  We got spanked in Game #1, 19-7, and were actually getting spanked in Game #2 through 4 innings.  Then they apparently got lulled to sleep and the damn broke!

Going into the bottom of the 5th inning, we were down 9-1 and had only 3 hits, 2 of those coming in the first inning.  But in the bottom of the 5th we sent 13 to the plate and scored 9 runs to go up 10-9!  It went like this:

Zalegowski double
Kissinger RBI-single
Peffer single
Max single
Hamilton RBI-single
RBI Fielder's Choice
Rudolph RBI-single
Hunter RBI-single + E8
Julian single
F-10
Capilo RBI triple
Zalegowski RBI single
F-9

Mike Zalegowski had both of his hits for the day in that inning.

The excitement didn't end there!  They led off the top of the 6th with an SOE, single, single, single, double, single to score FIVE runs before making 3 consecutive outs.  That put them up 14-10 bad-guys.

But in the bottom of the 6th, we stayed hot, banging out a 6-run inning...

Peffer single
Max single
Hamilton single to load the bases
Ostrowski RBI single
P-6
Hunter 2-RBI single
Julian 2-RBI triple
RBI SF-10
F-8

That put us up 16-14.

In the top of the 7th, they could muster only a single and that was the game!
