Rebels vs Bad News Bears

Deja Vu all over again. The second meeting between these two teams was a virtual carbon coby of the first. The Rebels were able to score early runs against the Bears starter, Austen Goheen comes through with a bases-clearing hit, the Rebels surrender the lead on a two-run error and come up empty against the hard-throwing Luke Jun. In fact, the final score was also the same---6-4.

The Cougars starting pitcher did not allow a hit in 6 2/3Rd's innings. With two outs in the seventh, trailing 2-1, the Rebels rallied to take a 4-2 lead. Kelyn Cope, Brendan Goldacker and Tate Bonhannon all crossing the plate, with Kyle Obertino driving in what proved to be the winning run. In the bottom half of the seventh, the Cougars put their lead off man, only to have him picked off at first by catcher Obertino. With one out, runners on first and second and one run scored, a Cougars batter popped up just behind the pitchers mound. The home plate umpire declared the batter out with the "infield fly rule" in effect, the runner on second attempted to advance to third where he was doubled off, ending the game. Rebels 4 - Cougars 3.

Rebels vs Bad News Bears

Once again a two-hour time limit was instituted and cost the Rebels a chance to come back against an opponent. The Rebels took the early lead on Bad News Bears starter Sid Sargenson, but were unable to add to it when Luke Jun followed him on the hill. The Bears clawed back to tie the game at four and eventually took the lead on a two-run error in the bottom of the sixth. Umpires ruled the game over at the two hour mark. After the game Park and Rec personnel admitted their error in instituting a time limit.

Rebels vs Stahlschmidt

The team from Brighton won in walk-off fashion after an emotion-filled game. Starter Brady Talkington gave a solid effort before being lifted after reaching his pitch limit. Talkington also scored the tying run in the top of the sixth on a fielders choice. Missed chances and a couple bad breaks kept the Rebels from taking control of the game. Stahlschmidt won the game after loading the bases in the bottom of the sixth, with the winning run scoring on a wild pitch. The game ended due to a two-hour time limit.
