TU STARS TANGLE WITH RU STARS
Wednesday afternoon at Lakefront Stadium in Crystal Lake, the best of the Tycobbian Union will tangle with the best of the Ruthlandian Union in the 59th Islandian Pro Alliance All-Star Game... over the years it's been a one-sided affair with the TU Stars taking 40 of the 58 clashes... and in recent years, it's been even more dominant with Tycobbia capturing the last 9 games in a row... the RU Stars are starving for a victory... the last time they went home happy was 2049.
The Tycobbian Union will be led by 5-time All-Star shortstop Vincent McCloud (Denton City), 4-time honorees, pitcher Beau McCloud (Arroyo Grande) and third baseman Jaybird Ethridge (Cape Coral), and 3-time selections, third sacker Kagetoki Miyazaki (High Mesa) and right fielder Bob Purkey (South Fork)... the Ruthlandian Union will headed up by pitcher Mickey Walsh (Sligo) with 5 All-Star appearances and second baseman Damien D'Amboise (Marston), a 3-time choice... the All-Star rosters are dominated by the Marston Nine with 5 players picked to perform for the Ruthlandian All-Stars... Luxora tops Tycobbia with 3 All-Stars... the youngest All-Stars this year are 21: outfielders Lanny Waldrep (Colfax), Randy Previn (Cape Coral) and Paddy Terry (Colchester)... no rookies made the squads... the elder statesmen are all 32: pitcher Mickey Walsh (Sligo), shortstop Gonzie Spencer (Ranford), catcher Mike Mitchell (Fairfax), first baseman Errol Waldrep (Colchester) and third baseman Jaybird Etheridge (Cape Coral).
