Tycobbian Union - West Division

Frogs Leslie Wins 9th Game
35-year-old lefty Jackie Leslie of Fairfax just keeps on winning. He captured his 7th straight victory by stopping Bay St. Clair 8-3 at Shoreline Park. That gave him his 9th win, which is tops in the Tyrobbian Union. Leslie (9-2 3.57) allowed eight hits, struck out four and issued no base on balls. He was backed up by the Frogs potent offense, which produced 11 hits today. Heading the hitters were right fielder Greg Vincent (.315) with two hits, three RBIs and his IPA-leading 23rd home run. He also leads in RBIs with 60. First baseman Ernie Hutchinson (.310) was 3-for-5 with his fourth homer. Third baseman Stan Cobb (.356) drove in two runs and scored twice for the winners. Sean Lawrence (2-5 4.69) copped the loss, pitching only two innings and giving up seven runs on seven hits.

Casey Ledbetter (9-1 3.06) of the Marston Nine also has won nine games this season and leads the Ruthlandian Union.

Fairfax (35-15) is the top club in the TU West and has no challengers in the first third of the season. The Bay St. Clair Buccaneers (20-32) are a distant last in the division cellar, 16 games out.

Viks Whip Arlon 4-3 in 11 Innings
Second place Bayview won on the road 4-3 in 11 innings at Derby Downs in Arlon. Second sacker Alan Hansen (.357) tripled in third baseman Bob Klostermann (.267) to send the fourth place Champions down to defeat. Viking closer Buzzy Lewis (2-2 3.09) hurled three scoreless innings for the win, while Arlon's Jeff Nieman (5-1 1.62) dropped his first game of the season, yielding a run and two hits in the last three frames. Homers accounted for the other Bayview runs. Both came in the third with a two-run shot by first baseman Dwayne Coleman (.304) and a solo job by right fielder Dean Howell (.341). Coleman is running second to Fairfax slugger Greg Vincent in homers, trailing 23 to 21, and in RBIs, 60 to 56. Arlon was led by center fielder Jerry Keller (.332) with three hits and an RBI and catcher Smoke Zakharov (.211) with 2-for-4 and an RBI. The Vikings were outhit by the Champs in the game 14-12. Both clubs wasted their hits and stranded many runners. It was Bayview's second win in a row and Arlon's fourth straight defeat.

Bayview (27-25) holds the runner-up spot to Fairfax (35-15) in the TU West standings, 9 games out, while Arlon (24-27) is fourth and trails by 11.5 games.

Blue Sox Barely Bump Off Lynx 2-1 Behind McPherson
Manager Tyson Cobb got an impressive outing from Clint McPherson, who shut the Luxora Lynx out for eight innings and beat them 2-1. McPherson (1-2 3.56) loaded the bases in the last inning, but surrendered only one run. The 31-year-old righthanded scattered nine hits for the victory, striking out five and walking one. Tony Nygaard (1-3 3.61) started and lost it for La Claire, giving up only six hits in eight innings, fanning seven and walking two. He was tagged for solo homers by third baseman Teddy Smith (.305) and shortstop Dandy Wilson (.258), one in the third frame and one in the seventh. Catcher Dennis Weiss (.272) plated the Lynx only run with a sac fly.

La Claire (25-26) is in third place, now 10.5 games out of first place and Blue Lake (22-28) is fifth, 13 games behind.
