Cheers Edges Playaz in 1st of 3 series. In the first LVC triple header finals Cheers takes game one 11-8. Cheers jumped out to a 3-0 lead when, with two strikes, Rich Cobuzio doubled just over the first base bag and scored on a single by Dave Plishka. Dave moved to second on a fly out by Bob Plishka and then the Playaz make their first key mistake of the game. With one out the next batter hits a grounder back to the pitcher who turns to check the runner at second who had broke to third. Don turns to throw to third but no body is covering the base and all runners are safe. Rob Thomas makes them pay with an RBI single scoring Dave and Paul Martino singles to score the third run. Cheers is up 3-0. The Playaz cut the lead to one when Eric Rosenberg singled and with one out Alex Conklin homered. Cheers leads 3-2. Cheers fails to score in the 2nd and the Playaz take the lead when Ralph Aiello singled, Brad Botelho singled and Jim Laden sacs in Ralph. Austin Tarlowe singled scoring Brad and the Playaz are up 4-3. Cheers doesn't score again in the 3rd and the Playaz turn over their lineup after Mark Johnson singled, Eric Rosenberg singled, Alex Conklin singled scoring Mark, Don Trifari singled scoring Shaun, John Spielberger singled, Steve DeBlasio grounded to short and Bob Plishka made a nice play to nip the runner at home. Barry Davis hits one off the third baseman's glove for an error scoring Don and the Playaz are up 7-3. In the top of the 4th Cheers has the top of the order up and Rich Cobuzio turned another singled into a double, this time down the left field line and just beat the strong throw by John Spielberger. Dave Plishka singled to score Rich. Bob Plishka lines out and then the Playaz makeshift outfield starts to give way. Derrick Margiotta hits a blooper to right that the injured Barry Davis can't hobble under. Then, with Barry Davis forced to play right, Rob Thomas hits a fly ball to right center that is misplayed and drops in and both Dave Plishka and Derrick Margiotta both score cutting the Playaz lead to one 7-6. The Playaz pick up another run in the bottom of the 4th when Jim Laden rips a singled and Austin Tarlowe bangs one off the bottom of the fence moving Jim to third. Jeff Tarlowe singles to score Jim and then inning ends on a double play. Playaz 8, Cheers 6. In the top of the 5th Eamon Lougham leads off with a single for Cheers and with one out Ken Nemeth also singles. The next batter hits a ball off the pitcher glove that result in a force out at 2nd. Then the hit of the game. With two outs and runs at 1st and 3rd, Cheers is trailing by 2, Ken O'Brien hits a triple by the right center fielder to tie the game at 8-8. The Playaz bats go cold in the 5th and with two outs in the 6th Cheers takes the lead. Dave Plishka hits a two out double to right and Bob Plishka doubles to right center to score Dave. Cheers is up 9-8. Next comes the first controversal call of the day. Steve DeBlasio singled and with two outs Ralph Aiello singled to center and Steve DeBlasio hustles around second and is barreling down to third as Dave Plishka fires a rocket to third that arrives as the same time as Steve. Mark Armelino makes a great play to catch the ball and Steve is called out by the home plate umpire (that used to be John Spielbergers friend, lol), much to the dismay of the third base coach and the runner. The out ends the inning and the Playaz chance to tie or take the lead. Cheers extends their lead in the top of the 7th when Paul Martino stretches as single into a double with a nice slide at second. The next batter makes an out and with two outs Eamon Lougham comes through again with an RBI single to right scoring the speedy Derrick Margiotta who came in to run for Paul. Nick Agnoli drops one into the tennis courts for a double to score Eamon and Cheers is up 11-8. Brad Botelho leads off with a single for the Playaz in the bottom of the 7th, but the next three batters fly out and Cheers takes game one 11-8. Dave Plishka get the MVP award for game one, leading Cheers with a 3-3 day, 2 RBI's and a great throw to cut down the Playaz threat in the 6th. Both the Playaz and Cheers had 17 hits for the game. The grounds crew comes on to drag the field and 15 minutes later we're starting game two. Just enough time to grab a bagel.
