Tycobbian East Division
The Tycobbian East is a ding-dong donnybrook... the Midway Wolves just took two of three games from the Red Bluff Red Sox and climbed up into a tie for the top spot, both with 85-63 marks... third place High Mesa (83-65) is breathing down their backs, just two games behind.
Midway lost the opener of the series 6-0... 22-year-old Wilson Sharpe (19-15/2.91) was brilliant, blanking the Wolves on just four hits... Charlie Chase (19-11/3.06) was the losing pitcher... rookie CF Paul Gaddison (.303/25 HR/86 RBI) had three hits and two ribbies to pace the Red Sox... 1B Monty Lyons (.296/19 HR/91 RBI) added in two RBIs... but the Middies roared back in game two at Joe Wolf Stadium, routing the Red Sox 11-5... Will DeBerry (18-16/3.17) posted the win... Fred Taylor (15-12/3.84) took the loss... rookie LF Robb Withers (.267/18 HR/43 RBI) homered twice for Midway... 3B Jamey Southwick (.223/24 HR/62 RBI) doubled, homered and batted in four runs... the same duo did it again in the third game... Withers hit two more out of the park and drove in four runs, while Southwick also hit a pair in a 7-2 triumph over Red Bluff... Dookie Higgins (5-3/4.58) went all the way in the win with the defeat charged to Ricky Lambert (13-9/3.98).
The Wolves travel to Kenwood (76-72) for three games and then close the season in San Alejo (58-90) for three final games... the Red Sox go up against Southport (73-75) at home and Mahaska (69-79) on the road in three-game series.
