McHoul's 14 - Doyle's 13
At Whitesell, both teams got their money's worth as a close game came down to the last inning. Doyle went up by 3 runs in the top of the eighth but McHoul's was able to come up with the decisive three runs on two outs in the bottom of the inning to eke out the victory. Final score was 14-13. McHoul's was led by the bats of Bob Diggelmann and Mark Batastoni, both going 4-4. A perfect day was also had by Dave Lowitz and Mo Ragusa, both going 3-3 with Ragusa's hit being the walk-off. Kevin Laffin, Bill Volpe and John Pucylowski also added 2 hits apiece. Russ Gilmore made some crucial stops at short, keeping the game close. Mark Batastoni secured his first "W" pitching, as he filled in for the ailing Jim Flood at the last moment. If I had an extra game ball it would have gone to Mark. Nevertheless, a good team effort.
For Doyle's: Mike Brooks, Angelo Sblendorio and Emil Viola all went 3-4. Jeff Noe
was 2-3, Pete Longobardi was 2-4 and Joe Prisco was 1-2 with a home run.
