Ruthlandian Union - North Division

Darby-McCain Combine to Blank Redhawks 7-0
Glasco pitchers Bill Darby and Ernie McCain teamed up and blanked the first place Far Mountain Redhawks 7-0 on four hits. Darby (3-1 3.05) allowed only four singles in his seven innings of work. He fanned five and walked three before going out for a pinchhitter in the six-run seventh inning. McCain got the last six outs and struck out four batters. The losing pitcher was Sonny Elliott (6-5 3.18), who paved the way for his own downfall by dropping a pop fly in the seventh that opened the flood gates. That error led to five unearned runs. The Athletics walloped 15 hits and were sparked by second baseman Barry McCord (.297) with three hits. Four other A's had a pair of hits with left fielder Ox Beauvais (.350) and pinchhitter Lee McDougall (.235) driving in two runs apiece.

It was Glasco's (27-25) fourth consecutive triumph and Far Mountain's (33-22) second defeat in a row. The A's are in a third place tie with Valmara (28-26) in the RU North standings and are 4.5 games behind the first place Redhawks.

Vipers Top Blasters 6-5
Mr. Clutch came through again for Valmara. Center fielder Jan Szymanski snapped a 4-4 tie when he singled in two runs through a drawn-in infield in the top of the ninth. That made it 6-4 and the third place Vipers managed to hang on to beat the second place Colfax Blasters 6-5. Closer Danny Blauser (5-1 1.79) notched the victory despite giving up first baseman Dennis Cole's (.309) 15th homer in the last of the ninth. Walt Sellers (1-4 2.31) was bushwhacked by Valmara for four hits and two runs in the decisive inning and took the loss. The Vipers offense chalked up 14 hits and were led by Szymanski (.257) with two hits and three RBIs, running his total 49 RBIs this season, 4th best in the Ruthlandian Union. Left fielder Louis Sharp (.365) went 3-for-5 and raised his league-leading batting average to .365. Right fielder Jet Kazmarek (.290) also had three hits and stole his 26th base of the year, tops in the league. First baseman Matt Mazurek (.244) homered for the Vipers. The Blasters had nine hits and were paced by shortstop Josh Jackson (.297) with two hits and 2 RBIs.

Valmara (28-26) remained tied with the Glasco Athletics (27-25) for third place, 4.5 games off the pace. Colfax (29-25) is in the runner-up spot and 3.5 games behind front-running Far Mountain (33-22).

V's Deal All-Stars 7th Loss in a Row, 8-5
Strong hitting and adequate pitching paid dividends for Voluisa today in a game at Elnora. The Vigilantes slammed out 14 hits in the 8-5 victory and dealt the homestanding All-Stars a seventh straight loss. Left fielder Jesus Arroyo (.249) went 3-for-4 and batted in two runs and right fielder Lonnie Howard (.248) was 2-for-5 and drove in a pair of scores. Johnny Szwak (4-1 4.60) was the winning pitcher, although he allowed five runs and nine hits, but struck out ten. He departed with the score 8-5 in the eighth. Closer Ricky Moreno (3-1 2.08) finished Elnora off by getting the final five outs. It was his Ruthlandian Union-leading 8th save. Shortstop Johnny Zumwalt (.296) had two hits and two RBIs for the All-Stars, while left fielder Quincy Peterson and first baseman Will Jackson (.222) each homered. Starter Sean Sykes (6-5 4.98) was tagged with the loss, yielding seven runs in six-plus innings.

Volusia (26-29) is in the fifth spot in the division, seven games off the pace. Elnora (20-36) is in the cellar, 13.5 games back.
