| Kraker Biszantz: Great day for softball at the Field of Dreams today! Kraker Biszantz played a great game, winning 12-0 in a 6-inning game. Dave Anthony pitched a gem with a shutout.

| Susy's 14 Backbone Chiro 14 | ||||||
| Susy's: Susy’s Home Cleaning and Backbone Chiropractic fought toe-to-toe through seven innings, but neither team could manage to make the game-winning play in the end. Both teams had some excellent moments, but the other team always matched it. Defensively for Susy’s, Mitch Craun and Tim Brown made some critical catches in the outfield as did Mark Beckner, Brad Johnson and Gary Armstrong in the infield. Pitcher John Recob was his usual steady self on the hill and gave us a chance to win in this nail-biter. Offensively, Patrick Burnett ripped three hits and scored twice, Kim Hurd also smacked three hits and scored once, sub Brad Johnson smoked two singles and scored twice, Mark Beckner drilled two singles (3 RBI) and scored twice, Mitch Craun cracked three singles (2 RBI) and scored three times, Gary Armstrong hammered three hits (triple, 4 RBI) and scored once, John Recob pounded three hits (double, 2 RBI) and scored twice, Jon Chlebeck connected on three singles (RBI), Kim Macqueen banged two hits (RBI), Tim Brown delivered a single (RBI), and Dick Hansen nailed a single and scored once.

| Dynamic: Dynamic Wealth Management, and Susy’s Home Cleaning, played a time clock shortened 6 inning game on a windy, but beautiful day at the Field of Dreams. In a see-saw battle the money managers were up 4-2 after 1. Down 7-4 after 2. Tied at 8 after 3. Down 11-9 after 4. And further down 15-11 after 5. Becky Holliday’s pitching, and the defense, held Susy scoreless in the top of the 6th inning, laying the groundwork for a Dynamic Wealth comeback in the home half of the final frame. The bottom of the order came up huge again. Scoring a couple of runs, knocking in a couple of runs, and turning the lineup over to the top. John Hammel had a huge two run double to tie the game up in the 6th. Unfortunately the game ended there as a tie, as a pinch running faux pas caused the 3rd out of the inning to be registered without a swing of the next at bat. Coulda, woulda, shoulda. I won’t make that same mistake twice! Final score Dynamic Wealth 15, Susy’s Home Cleaning 15. Leading the Dynamic Wealth offense and going perfect at the plate were Frank Carter, Jeff Heary, and Becky Holliday. All going 4 for 4. Also perfect was Dave Swanson going 3 for 3 with a walk.

| Dynamic: Well that was a blast! On an absolutely stunning day at the Field of Dreams, Backbone Chiropractic, and Dynamic Wealth Management, battled on opening day of the Winter White League season. It was an old fashioned taffy pull that neither team wanted to lose. It was 5 - 4 Backbone after 1 inning. 9 all after 3 innings. 10 all after 4 innings. Finally, in the 5th inning, the money managers snuck ahead 13 -11. Only to have the back crackers come back with 5 runs in the top of the 6th to take a 16 - 13 lead. In the home half of the 6th, now down by 3 runs, it was tight sphincter time for the money managers. With the heart of the order coming up, Dynamic Wealth reached deep down with grit, and ripped 5 straight hits. 3 hole hitter Dave Nathe led off with a double. Cleanup man Jeff Heary ripped a double knocking in Dave Nathe. The 5 hole batter John Gavazza, hit a single moving Heary to 3rd. In the 6th spot, Chuck Frazier knocked a single, scoring Heary, moving Gavazza to 3rd. Newcomer Frank Carter came to the plate and doubled.

For Backbone in the top of the 7th inning, it was 4 batters, one hit, a double, and the potential tying run stranded at 2nd base when the last out was secured. What a game! What a start to the Winter season! If this is an indication of the competition and excitement of this new season I’m glad that I’m getting AED training this weekend! It’s going to be a heartstopper of a season! Dynamic Wealth offensively was led by new club member Frank Carter, Jeff Heary, and Dave Nathe, all perfect at the plate. Frank was 4 for 4, with a run scored, and the big 2 run double in the 6th inning knocking in the tying and winning runs. Jeff was 3 for 3 with a double, 2 runs, and 2 RBI.

| NW Physical Therapy 21 Susy's 16 | ||||||
| NWPT: he third game of the day was interesting to say the least. Both teams had some unexpected fielding issues that led to a lot of runs early. NWPT was able to make enough plays for the win highlighted by Frank Dominico’s diving catch. Mike Sterricker played a very solid 2B and was 4-4 in his debut. Mike Hefty was 3 for 4 in his debut. In a statistical anomaly every NWPT batter had at least one RBI and one run scored and all had at least two hits. 31 for 43 will win lots of games. That said Suzy’s 16 runs will also win most games. Thanks to Jeff Tucker for subbing and another amazing slide into 3B. | ||||||

Excellent defensive plays were turned in by the following Susy’s Home Cleaning players: Kim Macqueen, Tim Brown, Mark Beckner, Mitch Craun (editors note-You look good in pink Mitch) and Gary Armstrong. At the same time, we expect to make more positive defensive plays going forward. Offensively, Patrick Burnett drilled three hits and scored once, Kim Hurd pounded three hits (2 RBI) and scored three times, Mark Beckner slugged three hits, Mitch Craun hammered three hits (4 RBI) and scored once, Ronnie Silberman collected two hits (RBI) and scored once, Gary Armstrong cracked three hits (3 RBI) and scored twice, John Recob banged three hits (RBI) and scored once, Jon Chlebeck blasted three hits (triple, 3 RBI) and scored once, Kim Macqueen ripped a single and scored once, Tim Brown smoked two hits (RBI), and Dick Hansen collected three hits (triple, double, RBI) and scored twice.

| Backbone: After clinching the White League Championship on Tuesday, BackBone Chiropractic closed out the season by winning by a final score of 12-4 over Homesmart to finish with a 14-4 won-loss record. Every player had at least one hit en route to the win. More remarkable, the defense with no player except Randy Biko and Dennis Vance at a position played during the season, was at its best.

Dennis Vance went 3 for 4 with a double on the day; and Patrick finished the season 1 for 2 with a walk and 2 runs scored. | ||||||
| Homesmart: Well it was the last game of the season and unfortunately the results are the same. The Homesmart Ezell Realtors just couldn't put a complete game together and lost today by a score of 12-4. The weather was perfect the crowd was great and our opponents hit very well. The highlight of the game was relief pitcher John Recob came in and pitched a great game in relief. Although the season is over we need to thank our manager Randy VanWagner for sticking with us in the good and bad times. Thanks Randy. See you all next season. | ||||||
| Kraker Biszantz 16 Susy's 4 | ||||||
| Kraker Biszantz: On a cold morning for the last game of the season the hot Kraker Biszantz Realty team didn’t disappoint, keeping up the hitting and playing great defense. We scored 5 in the bottom of the 1st and never looked back. Winning pitcher Dennis Kartcher pitched a gem holding Susy’s Home Cleaning to just 4 runs in 6 innings, final score 16-4. Offensively we made use of 6 doubles and 3 triples to tally the 16 runs on 27 total hits, keeping Mike Wunsch busy at 3rd base. Leading hitters were Brian Martin 4/4(2doubles), sub Randy Van Wagner 4/4, sub Frank Carter 3/3(triple and a sac fly) in his first game at Grand(Welcome aboard Frank!), Glenn Griffin 3/4 (double), David Power 3/4(triple), Jay Corbett 3/4(double), Brian Pin 2/4(double), Gary Armstrong 2/3 with a walk, Tim Brown 2/3(triple) and Dave Dompier added a double. Thanks to subs Randy Van Wagner and Frank Carter. It was a great season, lots of fun, and once we got going, we were hard to beat down the stretch winning 8 out of our last 10 ballgames. Hats off to every team in the league for a competitive, fun fall session. Special thanks to Commissioners Rick Armentano and Chip Stanczak for putting together a well-run White League. |
||||||
| Susy's: On a cool January morning Susy’s Home Cleaning squared off against the hot Kraker Biszantz team for their last game of the fall session. The game started poorly for the home cleaners when we failed to score in the first inning but gave up the maximum five runs to the Kraker Biszantz team. To shorten what could be a long story suffice it to say things didn’t improve for Susy’s as they were outscored in every inning. The mercy game ended after six innings with the score 16-4 in favor of the Kraker Biszantz team. Congratulations to the team and managers on the win. Susy’s just couldn’t get their bats working although a number of well hit balls went straight to defender gloves. Although it seemed we couldn’t catch a break the team fought hard all the way to the final out. Thanks to Roger Gabbart for subbing for us. Thanks to the umpires and scoreboard operator. Thanks to Jeff and Cathy for coaching and keeping the scorebook. |

| Dynamic 11 TP Dentist 3 | ||||||
| Dynamic: And that’s a wrap! We started the season going 3 - 1 in the first 4 games. And, we finish the season going 3 - 1 the last 4 games. The problem was going 0 - 9 - 1 in the middle 10 games! During that 10 game span we had a tie, two 1 run losses, one 2 run loss, and one 3 run loss.All close games that with a bounce here, a seeing eye lawn dart there, could have made for a different season. In spite of the 10 game winless streak, it was sure a fun time playing together as a team. In the final Fall White League game, Dynamic Wealth beat the second place Thomas Pham Dentistry in a game that meant nothing to either team from a standings standpoint. Outside of the money managers 5 run outburst in the 3rd inning this was a pretty low key affair, with neither team scoring more than 2 runs in any other frame. The final score was Dynamic Wealth 11, Thomas Pham Dentistry 3. Leading the way for Dynamic Wealth was Mark Beckner and Jeff Heary, both going 4 for 4. Mark set the table at the top of the order scoring 3 runs. And Jeff, in the run producing 3 hole, had 2 triples, a run scored, and a team leading 6 runs driven in. Nice game guys! Andy Campbell, Kevin Katsuki, Dave Swanson, and Sub Gary Armstrong were all 2 for 3. With Andy hitting a double and knocking in 2. Kevin hit a double and drove in 1 run. Dave hit a double and scored 2 runs. Bob Lessard and Jon Chlebeck each had 2 hits, with Jon scoring a run with 1 RBI. And Bob scored 2 runs with 1 run driven in. Sub Gary Armstrong pitched well and kept the Dentists at bay all game. It was an all around team win! Thanks to Becky Holliday for keeping the scorebook while nursing her injury. And thanks to Gary Armstrong for subbing for us! We hit the reset button and start the Winter season next week with a new team. It's been a blast! Thanks guys for a fun season! | ||||||
| TP Dentist: Dynamic Wealth played good defense behind the pitching of Gary Armstrong as our Pham Dentist team could only muster 9 hits in an 11-3 loss. Wayne pitched well for us and he deserved a better fate. Paul Larson (3-3) and Dave Nathe (2-3, 2B) had more than half of the Pham hits with the former having 2 doubles. On defense Kim was busy as she had a part of 10 outs from her second base position. Our Pham team had a good season finishing 11-6-1. Thanks to Kris for keeping a neat and accurate book all season. |
