Fathers Day and Stats Update

We played three yesterday in fine weather. Freddie Melendez beat Jeff Appell 5-2 in the opener, scattering 7 hits and smacking a bases-clearing double in the first inning. In the second game, Havelock Hewes improved his record to 10-3 by beating Phil Ciccone 5-2. Ciccone was undone by a defense not containing himself that committed 7 errors. Marvin Cohen tied a softball record by getting three unassisted putouts in an inning, on a pair of line drives, one of which Cohen took in for an unassisted DP. For some reason we decided to play a 9-inning third game, which Sam Melendez won 14-11 over a committee of Tony Connor, Freddie Melendez, and Havelock Hewes. Sam Magnus drove in 5 runs for the winning team, and Ian Parfrey relieved Sam Melendez in the 9th and snuffed a potential comeback by retiring Fred Lang and the suddenly red-hot Marvin Cohen (5 hits in the last 2 weekends) on groundouts.

Also, the stat sidebar has finally been updated.
