Ruthlandian Union - North Division

Redhawks Rip Colfax 15-5 in Series Opener
Sky High Stadium in Far Mountain is the site of a four-game series between the top two clubs in the Ruthlandia Union North Division, the hometown Redhawks and the visiting Colfax Blasters. In game one, it was no contest -- first place Far Mountain mauled second place Colfax 15-5 to take a 1.5-game edge in the division. The Redhawks ripped 17 hits in the romp, led by first baseman Royce Benson (.330) with three hits, three runs and two RBIs, center fielder Hawk Gallagher (.281) with two hits, three runs and an RBI, shortstop Joey Cannizzaro (.342) had three hits, scored twice and drove in one run, catcher Dave Davis (.345) went 2-for-6 and drove in a pair of runs, right fielder Tommy Sonnier (.306) hit his 7th homer, had two hits, scored twice and drove in two, and left fielder Gerald Davis (.263) had two RBIs. First baseman Dennis Cole (.313) and Pat Lott (.256) was the best the Blasters had to offer. Cole collected his 14th home run, doubled and drove in two runs, while Lott had a double and two RBIs. Vic Vaux (5-2 3.27) cruised to the victory, gave up five runs and eleven hits, struck out six and walked one. The loser was Robbie Smith (1-3 4.20), who departed early in the second inning after allowing seven runs and six hits.

Far Mountain (30-20) got a little breathing room with the victory and increased its lead to 1.5 games over runner-up Colfax (28-21). It was the Redhawks third successive win.

Kivett in Command, V's Dump A's 6-1
What a find for the Volusia Vigilantes! Kit Kivett has been on the team less than two weeks and has already won four games. His latest win was 6-1 over Glasco at Athletics Field. The 34-year-old righthander limited the A's to just five hits and one run, while fanning five and allowing no walks. Kivett (4-0 1.29) has started four games and completed them all. Kivett (.286) even had a double and a triple in four at-bats. The V's collected 10 hits and were led by first baseman Alejandro Salazar (.278) and catcher Jojo Nunez (.316), both had two hits apiece. Glasco starter Ernie McCain (2-6 4.45) caught the loss, leaving in the fifth after permitting six runs and seven hits.

The Athletics (24-23) are in third place and trail Far Mountain (30-20) by 4.5 games. The Vigilantes (22-28) are fith, eight games behind.

Bart Pitches Vipers Past All-Stars 6-3
Southpaw Gerry Bart needed a good start to keep his spot in the starting rotation and he got it. Bart pitched Valmara past Elnora 6-3 in a game played today at War Memorial Stadium. Bart was touched for 11 hits by the All-Stars, but was strong with men on-base. Bart (3-4 5.40) had four strikeouts and only one walk in the game. The Vipers put together an 11-hit attack with left fielder Louie Sharp (.356) and first baseman Tony Goudeau (.273) socking three hits each and shortstop Mike Ellefsen (.297) banging a two-run homer, his 6th of the year. Elnora starter Carl Costas (3-7 3.41) was the loser. He injured his arm and was removed in the fifth inning after allowing four runs, only two earned, and six hits. Costas could be out about two weeks. First baseman Paul Kesler (.409) had three hits to pace Elnora and shortstop Johnny Zumwalt (.297) drove in a pair of runs.

Fourth place Valmara (24-25) won its second straight game, while the last place All-Stars (20-31) fell for the second game in a row. The Vipers are 5.5 games off the pace, while Elnora trails Far Mountain (30-20) by 10.5 games.
