Tycobbian Union - East Division

Z's Pierce Stops Losses at 8 Games
In Ozarka, 22-year-old Chris Pierce of the Luxora Zorros stopped the first place Naturals 6-1 on seven hits and also put a stop to his club's recording-setting losing streak at 8 games. Pierce (5-2 2.66), a righty, tossed a strong game with seven Ks and only one walk. He outpitched Luther Hatch (6-4 3.30), who had a tough outing, yielding six runs and six hits before exiting in the sixth. Right fielder Pedro Vizquel (.306) paced the Z's with two doubles and two RBIs. Second baseman Paco Benitez (.276) and first baseman Paul Hallenbeck (.318) chipped in three hits apiece. The Nats rightfielder Denny Little (.197) put up their only run with his 3rd homer of the season.

Hurricanes Stun Ninjas in 9th 8-7
In Cape Coral in the first game of a doubleheader, the Hurricanes stunned the Ginza Ninjas 8-7 with a four-run rally in the ninth, highlighted by first baseman Rodger Wooten's two-run walk-off homer. Going into the last inning Ginza's Kojiro Matsumoto (6-1 3.74) had things well in hand with a 7-4 lead and 11 strikeouts, but closer Ken Watkins (3-2 2.73) couldn't stop the 'Canes and lost it. Doug Lyons (2-2 6.03) chalked up the win with three perfect innings of relief, retiring all nine batters he faced. Right fielder Danny Mullins (.304), shortstop Bobo Hatfield (.273) and left fielder Earl Giles (.250) all drove in two runs for Cape Coral. The Ninjas were sparked by catcher Katsuya Noguchi (.354) with three hits, a double, triple and home run, and 4 RBIs. He also scored three times.

Ninjas Win Nightcap 4-2 Over CC
Ginza gained a split in the twinbill with Cape Coral, winning 4-2 in the nightcap. Kazuhiru Nakayama (5-6 2.60) went the distance, allowed seven hits, fanned six and walked three. Left fielder Ronnie Graf belted a three-run double in the fourth inning to lead the Ninjas. First baseman Rodger Wooten (.301) got another ninth-inning homer, but it didn't win the game this time around. It was his 12th of the year. Kaz Hayagawa went six innings and got the loss. Ginza got to him for four runs and six hits in six innings.

'Cats Reed Ends South Fork Streak at 5
Hartsdale's Phil Reed put the clamps on South Fork hitters and put an end to the Stallions win streak at five. In the 5-2 victory Reed (5-1 2.59) limited them to just four hits, while striking out five and walking two. 19-year-old second baseman Whiz Weaver (.308) had a pair of hits and two RBIs to pace the Hellcats. Center fielder Greg Reynolds (.240) and left fielder Jay Luna (.277) both cracked two hits and scored twice in the Hartsdale 9-hit attack. Ken Olson (3-5 3.36) netted the loss, but pitched well, permitting three runs, only two earned, and six hits in seven innings. He fanned five and walked one.
