Tycobbian West Division
Thanks to the Turon Typhoons, the Denton City Redbirds (91-57) are now atop of the Tycobbian West Division... Turon swept a three-game set with the Rolling Hills Reds (90-58) and dropped them to second place in the standings, one game back of the Redbirds... Denton City moved to first place by taking two of three games from the East Point Panthers (78-70)... Flash Stringfellow (24-12/2.82) twirled an 8-0 shutout in game one... East Point captured the second game 8-7 with a late-inning rally despite five homers by the Redbirds... Sherm Dobkins (7), Val Anniston (24), Vincent McCloud (30), Ronny Lambert (10) and Winky Biggio (28) all went yard... the rubber game went to DC 8-3 behind the fine pitching of Jayson Mannon (20-9/3.21), who won 20 games for the third time in his nine-year career... 1B Val Anniston (.270/25 HR/70 RBI) and LF Rook Rydell (.333/1 HR/1 RBI) backed him up with roundtrippers.
Denton City has six games left to play... and they will be against the Arlon Champions (73-75) at home... and out of town in North Hills (77-71).
