Tycobbian Baseball Union

TBU East Division

Nats over SF in 13
The top club in the TBU East, the Ozarka Naturals, used the longball to derail the South Fork Stallions 3-2 in 13 innings. Shortstop Kelly Eldridge (.316) socked one out off loser Ken Conner (0-1) to bring home the victory. It was a magnificent pitching duel for eleven innings between the Nats Yasayuki Nakagawa and the Stallions Ken Olson. Nakagawa gave up only five hits with one run, fanned five and walked five. Olson was even better with eleven Ks, two walks, one run and six hits. Alec DiMaggio (2-0) garnered the win in spite of blowing a save in the twelfth. He couldn't close it out after first baseman Floyd Snow's (.241) roundtripper gave Ozarka a 2-1 lead. But he zipped through South Fork 1-2-3 in the bottom of the thirteenth after a lead-off single by left fielder Gene Woodruff (.298).

The Nats ran their season record to 15-10, while the last place Stallions dipped to 10-16.

Fourth place Ginza (12-12) and fifth place Hartsdale (11-13) both had the day off. They were not scheduled. The Ninjas trail Ozarka by 2.5 games, while the Hellcats are 3.5 games back.

Z's Win Fourth in a Row
The Luxora Zorros have been deadly toward the Cape Coral Hurricanes. The Z's have beaten them four in a row, winning 4-2 today at Seaside Stadium. They may rename it Seasick Stadium after Luxora leaves town. A big, lanky lefthander blew the 'Canes away on a six-hitter as Francisco Fernandes (2-1) weaved his junkball magic. The 6'7" hurler beat them to death with a powder puff, striking out only two batters, but not letting them get a good piece of the ball. The Zorros, meanwhile, rocketed three out of the ballpark against loser Owen Pruitt (2-1), who only permitted five hits in eight innings and fanned nine. First baseman Paul Hallenbeck (.301) and third baseman Rico Vina (.262) hammered back-to-back homers in the second inning and shortstop Jimmy Eichelberger (.095) put the game out of reach with a two-run shot in the fifth. Catcher Rick Clark (.294) gave Cape Coral their only runs with a two-run roundtripper in the bottom of the fifth. That was it for the scoring for the day.

The Luxora Zorros are now 12-11 for the year with Cape Coral falling to 13-11. The 'Canes are in second place in the TBU East, two games behind Ozarka (15-10). Luxora is in the third spot in the division.
