Ruthlandian Baseball Union

RBU North Division

A's Whip Blasters 6-4
Bill Darby gave Glasco just what the doctor ordered -- some good relief pitching. He blanked Colfax from the fifth inning on to lead the Athletics to a 6-4 win. Darby (1-0) came on for struggling starter Arnie McFalls, who gave up 4 runs and 6 hits in the first four frames. Darby allowed only one hit the rest of the way, fanned four and walked just one. Harry Manning (2-1) took the loss, permitting 5 runs and 7 hits in only four innings.
CF Chet Reynolds and 3B Rick Atkins had two hits and an RBI each to pace the A's. LF Ox Beauvais jolted his 7th homer of the year for Glasco.

Glasco (11-5) claimed first place in the RBU North, while Colfax is in the third spot, 2.5 games out. Valmara (10-6) dropped out a first place tie with a loss to Far Mountain (8-8).

Redhawks Crush Vipers
Dave Davis and his Far Mountain teammates had a field day as they bashed Valmara for 16 hits in an easy 9-3 triumph. Davis had a perfect day at the plate with 5 hits in 5 tries. He hammered two home runs and a double to drive in 5 runs. He is the fourth player to get 5 hits in a game. 35-year-old John Luzzatti (1-1) collected the win with some help from closer Doc Rutledge. Luzzatti was relieved in the eighth after giving up 3 runs and 5 hits. Paul Schoenfeld (0-2) absorbed the loss and was whacked for 4 runs and 7 hits in just 5 innings.

The Vipers (10-6) are now in second place in the RBU North, a game behind first place Glasco (11-5). Far Mountain (8-8) moved up to .500 and is in fourth place.

V's Knock Off All-Stars
The last place Vigilantes got a complete game from Hank Massey and defeated Elnora 5-1 at Silver River Stadium in Volusia. Massey (2-2) throttled the All-Stars on 6 hits, while fanning 7 and walking 5. Loser John Tinker (1-2) gave up 4 runs and 9 hits in 7 innings with only 2 of them earned. The V's rapped out 11 hits overall with Scooter Perez, Jesus Arroyo and Chaco Rivera each getting 2 hits.

Volusia (5-12) is still in the RBU North basement, while Elnora (6-10) is in fifth place. It was the All-Stars third consecutive defeat.

RBU South Division

SV's Hines Stops Lumberjacks 9-2
Harvey Hines (2-1) doesn't walk many, doesn't strike out many and doesn't allow many runs, either. But he wins games. Today the Sugar Valley hurler dumped Forest City 9-2 as he scattered 10 hits and finished the game with 2 strikeouts and 2 walks. The Rattlers backed him up a double, three triples and two homers. LF Karl Dietz and C Paul Bailey each slammed 2-run homers and CF Freddie Vaux added in 2 more RBIs with a triple and a sac fly. Hines yielded roundtrippers to 2B Jesse Wolf and LF Chuck Hill. It was Hill's 8th this season. Vinny Edelman (0-1) netted the defeat as Sugar Valley KO'ed him after three innings, ripping him for 5 hits and 6 runs.

The Rattlers (10-6) are on top of the RBU South. The fifth place Lumberjacks (7-9) trail them by 3 games.

Sunbirds Squeak by Marston
Erik Kesler was the whole show for Belair Beach. The Sunbird left fielder drove in all of the runs in a 5-3 victory over the Marston Nine for their fourth straight win. He had a 3-run homer and two doubles in the game. Lefty Carl Thompson (3-2) notched the win by holding Marston to 3 runs in 8 innings. Lou Zanelli came on in the ninth to finish it out and garnered his 3rd save of the year. Closer Milt Wilson (0-1) entered the game with the score tied at 3-all in the eighth and chalked up the loss, when Kesler belted a game-winning 2-run double off of him. Marston 1B Johnny Berthold got his 3rd homer of the season off Thompson in the sixth.

Belair Beach (9-8) is now in second place in the RBU South, tied with Marston (9-8). Both are 1.5 games in back of division leader Sugar Valley.

Waleska Edges Claxton 5-4
It wasn't pretty, but Gary Hill of Waleska persevered and beat Claxton 5-4, holding them scoreless the last four innings. Hill checked the Diamonds on 5 hits, fanned 4 and walked 3, while tossing a complete game. Wildness had a lot to do with Dennis Scott's (0-2) downfall. The Claxton starter walked 7 and had to be taken out in the fifth, trailing 5-2. Homers played a big part in the game. Each club unloaded two solo shots each. 1B Freddie Shelton and C Mac Wilkins hit them for the Westerners and 1B Matty McCluskey and RF Arnie Kruger connected for the Diamonds.

Waleska (9-9) snapped a three-game losing skein and is in the fourth spot in the RBU South Division, two games out of first. Claxton (6-10) is in last place and trails by four games.
