…at the bar. A big crowd turned out at the chalk talk to celebrate the end of the regular season. There was an early scare when the beer taps started failing, but the Summit never stopped flowing.
The play of the game occured when Chris struck out Joe Mansky of the Capitol Offenders, an unprecedented occurence according to his teammates.

After months without a winner, Kari Ness opened a $100 pull-tab at the chalk talk after Tuesday’s game. There was much rejoicing. We also toasted Ben Wareham who played in his last game before he heads to India for a four-month student teaching gig. Ben had three hits in the game, including a home run.
But the defense was sloppy again as Mother Goose beat us 21 to 12.
Gus made several outstanding running catches in the outfield.

Starting pitcher Jim Bickal set the tone by walking the first three batters, as the ballclub was out of kilter all night. After beating Top Floor twice earlier in the season, they nipped us this time by a final score of 10 to 9.
The Top Floor pitcher made the defensive play of the game, snagging a shot by Gus.

Some fans headed to the bar before the end of the game and missed an exciting comeback in the seventh inning as we scored six runs to tie it up. Allison had the key hit in the inning, a triple which drove in two runs. But the Agwarriors came back with a run in the bottom of the seventh to win it 22 to 21.
Fred made the defensive play of the game, an acrobatic catch after a long run from his shortstop position.

Left fielder Bill Wareham threw out a baserunner at third base in the seventh inning to help thwart a budding rally by Probation as MPR held on for a 15 to 13 victory. Bill’s son Ben was one of the hitting stars with a home run and four RBIs.
Gus made the defensive play of the game with a diving grab in the third inning on a fly ball to short centerfield.
And Jenner played while wearing her new engagement ring. Congratulations to Jenner, Ryan and the ballclub.
