RBU North Division

Guidry Sets New K Mark
Flash Guidry was really electrifying at Mountain View Stadium as he set a new mark for strikeouts in the IPA. He struck out 14 Glasco A's in the 8-1 shellacking by the Colfax Blasters. Guidry (3-3) surrendered six hits and walked three in a superlative effort. Third baseman Rick Farrell gave him more than enough runs with a grand slammer in the sixth inning. Charles Darby (2-2) was the losing pitcher and went to the shower trailing 6-1.

The old strikeout record was 13, held by Bennie West of Blue Lake and Luther Hatch of Ozarka. Guidry is the IPA strikeout king with 53 in 53 innings. He lowered his ERA to a brilliant 1.89. Guidry has made six starts and finished them all.

Colfax (13-9) is making it a rough series for the Athletics (12-9) with their third consecutive win. The Blasters are still one game behind first place Valmara (14-8), while Glasco is in the third spot in the RBU North, 1.5 games back.

Zalewski Wins 5th Game
He wasn't as sharp as he has been in his other starts this season, but Zarek Zalewski still did his job well and got his 5th victory for the first place Valmara Vipers. They came back in the middle innings and rallied to beat Volusia 5-3. A two-run sixth turned the tide for Valmara. Left fielder Louis Sharp doubled in the winning run and right fielder Jet Kazmarek added an insurance run with a single. Both of them had three hits in the game. Pee Wee Cruz (1-4) had another tough outing and took the loss. He was raked for five runs and eight hits in six innings.

The Vipers are atop the RBU North Division with a 14-8 mark, while the Vigilantes are last at 8-16.

Redhawks Edge All-Stars 4-3
Far Mountain's Sonny Elliott had his best performance this season with a close 4-3 decision over the Elnora All-Stars as he halted their losing streak at four. Elliot (3-2) checked them on five hits. He walked five and also fanned five. Losing pitcher Carl Costas (1-4) departed after the seventh and yielded four runs and eight hits, striking out nine batters. Right Fielder Joe Leroux drilled a two-run homer to spark the Redhawks and three players had a pair of hits each -- first baseman Royce Benson, catcher Dave Davis and left fielder Gerald Davis. The All-Stars had won three in a row.

Far Mountain (10-12) is fourth in the RBU North and stands four games out of the top spot. Elnora is fifth and five games behind.
