Ruthlandian Baseball Union

North Division

Rattlers Are in First!
Waleska was poised to move into the top rung along with Marston in the RBU South with a win, but it didn't happen. Sugar Valley spoiled the party for them by ripping them 8-4 at Westerner Field and taking over the top spot in the division. The Rattlers pounded out fifteen hits with center fielder Freddie Vaux (.290) and left fielder Cy Bartz (.321) leading the charge. Vaux hammered three hits and drove in three runs, while Bartz went 3-for-6 with two RBIs and scored twice. Sugar Valley's third baseman Jorge Vargas (.337) was 2-for-4 and scored three times. Tony Michelet (3-2) went all the way and stopped Waleska on eight hits and four runs with no walks and four strikeouts. Loser Marv Chancellor (1-5), the Westerner starter, continued to have trouble on the mound and was jumped on for six runs and seven hits in four innings.

The Rattlers (14-11) took over first place by a few percentage points over the Marston Nine (15-12). Waleska (14-12) dropped to third place, a scant half-game behind.

Diamonds Dump Marston 8-3
The outhouse got the best of the penthouse in the RBU South today -- The cellar-dwelling Claxton Diamonds socked it to the first place Marston Nine 8-3 at Legends Field. Left fielder Winky Rush (.291) delivered the decisive hit, a fourth-inning grand slam and lefthander Pat Castellani made it stand up. Castellani (3-2) was tagged for nine hits, but most of them didn't do much damage. Single runs in the second, fourth and seventh is all he gave up. Nick Pace (5-3) was looking for his sixth win, but he didn't get it. He surrendered seven runs and three hits and exited in the fifth losing 7-2.

Marston's season record fell to 15-12 and Claxton improved to 10-17.

'Jacks Cut Down Belair Beach
Glenn Moore was on target and fashioned a 5-1 victory over the Belair Beach Sunbirds. Moore (2-0) fanned seven, walked two and gave up eight hits and was backed up by home runs by right fielder Benny Davis (.267) and third baseman Donnie Shropshire (.167). Troy Wilson (2-3) caught the loss as he was whacked for five runs and seven hits. The Lumberjacks got rid of him in the eighth.

Forest City (14-13) took over the fourth spot in the RBU South Division and pushed the Sunbirds down to fifth (13-14). The Lumberjacks are only one game out of first and Cape Coral is just two games behind.
