Scoring Highlights for Mon, July 7, 2008

Interdivisional Play:

There were nine games played today between Div A and Div B. Guess who won? Div A won all 9 games. Hitters at Harford was rained out, as was Greenbelt at Parkville. Other results: Glen Elg ran over Catonsville 17-4; Glen Burnie beat Bel Air twice 13-5 and 12-9 (April 21 make up game) in the closest contest of the day; Howard shut out Dundalk 22-0; Old Liners took 2 from Bronze 9-4, and 15-1 (April 21 makeup game); Silver tarnished Gold twice 13-5, and 16-2 (April 21 makeup game), and Carroll Blue did a colorfull job on Carroll Gray 20-9.

As a result of today's actions, the only standings changes happened in Div B, where Catonsville took over the league lead from Bel Air, because it only lost one game while Bel Air lost 2 games. ( Here's a case where you gain by losing??!)

Scoring Highlights for make up games played on Thurs, July 3, 2008

Division A:

In a June 4 make-up game, Carroll Blue scored one more run than Glenn Burnie for a 10-9 win . In the second game, however, Glenn Burnie retaliated with a 21-8 victory, and, therefore, these results had no effect on the overall standings.

Division B:

Bowie Gold and Howard Hitters went at it today, making up a double rain out originally scheduled for June 4. The expected outcome had the Hitters winniing both games (what did you expect?) by scores of 14-5 and 11-5. This extended Gold's losing streak this season to 26 games. Hang in there Gold, one day you're going to kick someone's dupa--just like one day, a Division B team is going to beat a Division A team.

No other make up action was reported for this day.
