Tycobbian Union - East Division

Z's Dump Ozarka for 4th Time, Takeover Top Spot
Luxora is looking like the best team in the TU East right now. The number one Zorros disposed of second place Ozarka for the fourth straight time, whipping them 7-3 behind Chris Pierce. They punched out 14 hits and were sparked by right fielder Pedro Vizquel (.257) who had two hits and tripled in three runs and first baseman Paul Hallenbeck (.306) with 4 hits and two RBIs. Pierce (4-1 2.30) spun a nice game, limiting the Nats to just four hits, but two of them were homers. He fanned nine and walked two for the win. Ozarka's Luther Hatch (5-3 2.90) had an off day and suffered the loss, yielding four runs and nine hits in five innings, but only two of them were earned. Left fielder Ronnie Patterson (.323) and first baseman Floyd Snow (.243) both clouted their 7th roundtrippers of the season for the Naturals.

Luxora (19-13) took possession of the top spot in the TU East Division and has a full game lead over Ozarka (19-15).

SF's Battle Stops CC 3-2
"Less is more" -- that certainly proved to be the case between Cape Coral and South Fork. The Stallions had only four hits to the Hurricanes eight, but they still took home the victory 3-2. Flint Battle (4-4 3.03) evened his record at 4-4. He struck out six and walked two in a good outing. Kaz Hayagawa (3-4 4.01) was dealt the loss. He surrendered only four hits in six innings but was tagged for three runs. Three of the hits came in the three-run fourth. Shortstop Bobby Riley (.280) singled in a run, first baseman Rod Reed (.136) doubled in a run and catcher Ronnie Blair (.091) had a sacrifice fly.

The Hurricanes (17-17) saw their record fall to .500 on the year, while last place South Fork (13-22) improved a little bit. Cape Coral and Ginza (17-17) are tied for the third spot in the TU East standing and are three games off the pace.

Ninjas Mann-Handled 1-0
The Ginza Ninjas were Mann-handled today at Pioneer Park in Hartsdale. Glenn Mann blanked them on seven hits 1-0. Hellcat second baseman Francisco Abreu (.265) drove in the game's only run with a first-inning single. Mann (3-5 3.01) only allowed three baserunners to get as far as second. He finished up with seven Ks and only one walk. Kazuhiro Nakayama (3-5 2.71) had the misfortune to face Mann today. He lost a tough decision, yielding only six hits in seven innings with seven strikeouts and just one walk.

Ginza (17-17) is tied for the third spot in the TU East with the Cape Coral Hurricanes (17-17). They both trail first place Luxora (19-13) by three games. Hartsdale (16-18) is a game back of them in fifth place.
