Tycobbian Union - East Division

Hellcats Clip Nats 5-4, End 4-Game Win Streak
At Pioneer Park Hartsdale cooled off red-hot Ozarka with a nip-and-tuck 5-4 triumph. This halted the first place Naturals winning at four games. Hartsdale trailed 3-0 after five, but rallied to win. The Hellcats center fielder Greg Reynolds (.227) used his speed to great advantage. He singled in the bottom of the ninth, stole second -- his third steal of the game -- and came across to score on second baseman Francisco Abreu's (.263) two-bagger. Bullpen ace Gene Young (2-1) got credit for the win, but he gave up three hits and a run over the last two innings. Reliever Louis Ray (2-3 5.62) came on in the ninth and was stung with the loss. First baseman Floyd Snow (.269) had the only homer in the game, a two-run clout in the fourth inning. Snow now has 9 for the season.

Reynolds set a new IPA mark for most stolen bases with three.

Ozarka (23-18) still is the TU East Division leader, while Hartsdale (19-22) is in fifth place. The Nats are one game up on runner-up Luxora (21-17).

Stallions Shellack Zorros 9-6
Second place Luxora's misery continued with a fifth successive defeat. Last place South Fork whacked out 12 hits on the way to a 9-6 victory at Jock Ewing Stadium. Center fielder Mike Yastrzemski (.262), first baseman Alex Kesler (.210) and catcher Darryl Burnett (.278) drove in two runs each to pace the Stallions. Yastrzemski got his with a two-run home run. Kesler and shortstop Bobby Riley (.287) both scored three times and had three hits apiece. The Zorros actually had more hits, but didn't do as much damage. Pacing the Z's 14-hit attack were center fielder Shotgun Boggs (.165) with a pair of hits and two RBIs and left fielder Tom Fortunato (.287) with 3-for-6. Ken Olson (3-4 3.43) gained the victory, but was hit hard for five runs and 11 hits in six innings. Billy Joe Gordon (0-3 2.60) came on in the seventh and got his 4th save, giving up only one run in three innings with 3 Ks. The losing pitcher was starter Chris Pierce (4-2 2.93), who allowed six runs and five hits in 3-plus innings and left with the score 6-1.

Luxora (21-18) is second in the division and trails Ozarka (23-18) by a game. South Fork (18-24) is in the TU East cellar.

Hurricanes Break 4-Game Losing Streak
Cape Coral put to rest a four-game losing streak and at the same time ended Ginza's win streak at four with an easy 9-2 victory. Lefthander Owen Pruitt (3-3 3.25) went the route, scattering nine hits. Sparking the Hurricanes at the plate were first baseman Rodger Wooten (.284) with 3-for-5, two runs and two RBIs, shortstop Bobo Hatfield (.256) with two hits and two RBIs and second sacker Jose Quinones (.250), who drove in a pair of runs. Kojiro Motsumoto (6-1 3.44) lost his first game of the year, yielding eight runs and seven hits in four-plus frames. Shortstop Shinjiro Aoki (.275) got three of the Ninjas hits.

With the win, Cape Coral (20-20) climbed to within a half-game of third place Ginza (21-20). The Hurricanes are fourth in the standings.
