Game one:
Good Strokes vs
Pounders
Pounders 12 - Strokes 4
The Pounders clinched their second consecutive league title this past Saturday by shutting out the short handed Strokes 10-0. Pitchers Geoff Green and Ken Kleid combined to stifle the Strokes' batters on a day when the light and variable winds kept the ball from leaving the park.
Despite having three runners thrown out at home, the Pounders built an insurmountable lead as they capitalized on some timely hitting and Stroke's errors. Rob Roberts homered for the second week in a row and Fred B. ignited a two out rally in the bottom of the sixth with a gapper to right center that allowed the ten run rule to come into effect. The Strokes were led by Tim Mendelson and Lenny Castelanos who both had a pair of hits.
Next week, the Pounders finish off the regular season against the Cyber Chucks, more commonly known as Y2K while the Strokes take on Polli's.
