Tom came to play: 1) nice catch from RCF on a ball hit by a lefty, slicing to his right, 2) outfield assist to 3B, 3) no offensive outs.
Angel hit a monstrous home run, but JRT/Swatm had a bunch.
Steve Guzman pitched for JRT, and he shut us down.

Wow - a full team! Marc arose from the dead, and Tom did manage to make it.
Annie hit the ball well.
Thanks to Joe Jacob for subbing; his second hit was a typical Joe-Jacob-beat-the-ball-into-the-ground-and-hustle-it-out hit.

Kelly's first hit as a Shark was a cheap one, but the second one went over Dave Seal's head in RCF.
Kobie played SS very competently.

Speed in the outfield - from left to right, Tony, Tom, Kobie, Richard.
Cleveland's big hit in the 6th increased the lead from 1 to 3.
Kobie's triple with the bases loaded in the 7th almost landed on the blacktop.
Richard in RF to Cleveland at SS covering second forced a runner out in the second.
Cleveland - Kelly - Rich almost turned a 6-4-3 double play, with a very nice turn by Kelly.
