CORE Institute - 12 Carrousel Travel - 18


Win Column! The Carrousel Travel team finally entered the win column with a victory over the Eddie Campbell led Core Institute bunch 18-12. It was our best game of the season as we pounded out 26 hits and every player figured in the scoring with hits, runs or RBI. Due to injuries, we have two new players on the roster, Dave Swanson for Jon Chlebeck (manager) and Mark Wells for Lonnie Saiz (who was invaluable coaching 1st base). Dave "Swani" Swanson led the team going 4/5, with 4 runs and 3 RBI including a double and an inside the park homer. Interim unnamed manager was 4/4 including a baserunning blunder being forced at 2nd base not knowing how many outs there were! Rover Larry Radant was 3/5 with 3 RBI, 2nd baseman Warren Stevenson was 2/3 with 4 RBI, a double and a walk, SS Ray "Ray" Gibson was 2/4 with an RBI and a walk, 3rd baseman Joe (spell that) Eschenbrenner was 2/4, 3 runs and 2 RBI, 1st baseman Barney Armstrong went 2/3 with a run, RBI and walk. LF Daren Proctor was 2/4, RF Mark Wells 2/4, a run and RBI and C Joel Last was 1/4, 2 runs and an RBI. Outstanding Pitcher Mike "Sully" Sullivan was "Lucky 2's", going 2/2 at the plate with 2 walks, 2 runs and 2 RBI. Sully pitched a great game putting up 4 scoreless innings. The game was tied at 8 after 3 innings, but we scored 10 in the last 4 innings while holding Core to only 4 which they put up in the bottom of the 7th. We beat the scoreboard clock by 18 seconds to send the game to a full 7 inning affair. Defensively, 1st baseman Barney Armstrong stole the show with a couple of line drive catches, the last one to end the game as he turned it into a double play. Many thanks to umpires Gerry Boesche and Charlie Counts and tower operator Dale Huffine for doing a fine job. Thank you Amy Chlebeck for sponsoring our team, we could feel the good vibes all the way from Minnesota! As always Russ and Eileen kept a perfect scorebook and kept the team in line when we went astray.


"CORE managed to keep the score close through 5 innings but gave up 8 runs in the final 2. Paul Jinneman and Dave Gjerstad were a perfect 4 for 4 at the plate. Gary Kuhlman, Jim Templeton, sub Denise Gabala and Ed Abrahms chipped in with 2 hits each.
