I missed yet another great one, from the sounds of it.  Abe "Cover Your Assets" Zuckerman was there with the play by play.  It also sounds like Abe's scoreless pitching streak continues.  



What a game. 

Chris Powell started for the visitors and Tony R. for the homers. 

Chris was "dealing", insofar as everything the homers hit went right into a glove, leading to 7 innings of no-run baseball for Powell and the homers. On the flip side, the visiting team was absolutely mashing and coupled with an endless stream of defensive errors, the result was something on the order of a 5-run 3rd, and a 5-7 run 5th (we stopped paying much attention after the score was ~10-0). 

Tony gave way to Chris Leavitt who pitched well in the 7th and 8th. 

Then, thanks almost exclusively to defensive errors, the homers managed to score 3 runs in the bottom of the 8th off Powell and it looked like the homers *might* be able to turn it around and end the game with a respectable score. 

Abe came in to pitch a scoreless top of the 9th, and then, in the bottom of the 9th, with men on 1st and 2nd, no outs, with a huge red-tail rally hawk circling above......Bob hit into the 5-4-3 triple play to end the game. 

Classic and brutal

5-4-3 (3B-2B-1B).  Well done.  Too bad Bob refused to be in the photo (unlike J.T. in the last triple-play shot).
