Coaches and league officials alike commended both teams on a well played game as the nine and 10 year olds displayed the ability to play good fundamental ‘baseball. The teams combined for just two errors, and five wild pitches. The boys consistently hit the cutoffman, threw to the proper base and most impressively, they knew when to hold onto the ball and run it back in rather than toss it all around the field. The Nationals jumped out on top, 3-0 in the second by sending all nine batters to the plate. ~ Cobleigh scored the game's first run when English grounded out to Benick. Three batters later, Domzalski smashed a solid single to center scoring Shiskowski. Eric Mahle scored an unearned run when Phil Kurello reached on an error.
