Greenbaums "shoulda, coulda, woulda WON" 
their first game of the season but lost 
in a "Slugfest" to J&N 23-22.

and left 3 runners stranded on 3rd Base -

and was losing after 5 innings 16-6.  
Greenbaums defense held J&N to just two runs 
in the 6th and 7th Innings and scored 6 runs 
to close the gap to 18-12 going into 
the last Inning.

14 of Greenbaum's 15 Batters got up to bat 
in the top of the 8th Inning, and scored 
10 big runs to take a nice  
22-18 lead going into the bottom 
of the 8th inning.   
Larry Stewart had a triple for 2 RBIs 
and Richie Sicardo belted a bases-loaded 
triple for 3 RBIs - and both scored on 
singles by other players during 
Greenbaum's 10 run rally.   

Unfortunately, J&N bounced right back 
with 5 runs on solid hits in the bottom 
of the 8th inning - with NO OUTS - to Win 23-22.  
Great defensive plays by both teams 
during the game.

GREENBAUM

Stan's Team outslugged Greenbaums 
29-17 at the Red Oaks Mill Field on June 17th.

"Most-Offensive" Players for Greenbaums:

Ernie Martin batted 5 for 5 3 RBIs;
George Hammer batted 4 for 4;
Bob "Woody" Wood batted 4 for 5 2 doubles; 
Larry Stewart also batted 4 for 5 2 doubles;

Jack Whyte batted 3 for 4;
Ed Bergamini batted 3 for 5;
Gary Landman batted 2 for 3 
plus a SAC Fly and 1 RBI.

"Outstanding Defensive Plays" for Greenbaums:

Left Fielder Stan Silverman and 
Left-Centerfielder Woody Wood 
each made 3 or 4 good running catches;
BUT - the "Defensive Play of the Game" 
for Greenbaums came with two outs and 
runners on 2nd and 3rd Base.
A batter belted a come-backer line-drive 
to pitcher Sammy Duke, and the ball bounced 
up off his outstretched glove to his 
bare hand, and then onto his shoulder, 
and then a half second later into his 
bare hand for an inning-ending out - 
which would have resulted in two RBIs - 
if not for Sammy's "Spectacular Catch" ! ! !   

Also - defensively it should be noted 
that Greenbaum's DEFENSE prevented 
Stan's 5th Run from scoring in 4 Innings, 
which coulda helped Greenbaums WIN . . . 
IF ONLY the final score was 10 runs closer. . . . .

GREENBAUM (16) at RESTRUNR (13)

GREENBAUM

In a hard-fought game, Greenbaums 
narrowly beat Restaurant Runners 16-13 . . . 
Restaurant Runners had bases-loaded 
in the bottom of the 8th Inning, 
so the tying run was on First Base.

For Greenbaums:

Roger Simon batted 3-3 2 RBIs;
Ernie Martin, Larry Stewart, 
Stan Silvernan and Ed Bergamini 
each went 3 - 4:
Larry Stewart  2B, 3 RBI  2 runs;

Sammy was the Winning Pitcher - 
and caught two hard-hit line 
drives to his left . . . 
IN HIS GLOVE !   
One was in the bottom of the 8th Inning - 
which probably saved two runs from scoring! 

Woody made a great defensive catch in 
Left-Centerfield with the strong winds 
playing havoc with the fly ball, 
and 3rd Baseman Ed Bergamini made 
a great shoe-string catch of a hard-hit 
line drive, and threw to Larry Stewart 
at 1st Base to double-up the runner!   

Greenbaum's defense was 
"Almost Perfect" - 
just two or three errors.

J&N CARP (15) at GREENBAUM (13)

J&N CARP

J&N beat Greenbaum 15-13 at Whitesell 
Leading by 6 runs going into the 
bottom of the 8th inning J&N held 
off a furious 4 run rally by GRB 
when with the bases loaded and 
one out Jaime Pagan made the play 
of the game by snaring a line drive 
and doubling off the runner on 3B to 
end the game dramatically!!!  
For J&N 
Mike Rassin 3/4, HR 3 RBI’s , 
Gene Fischer 3/3, 3 RBI’s, 
Bert Keating 3/3, 
Bob Zawacki as 3/4  rbi, 
Gary Lasko 2/4  rbi and 
Excellent base running and SS defense, 
Ray Smith was 2/3 with 2 RBI’s, 
Steve Cioffi went 2/3 Run (Winning PItcher), 
Allen Arnwine was 2/3 with 2 RBI’s, 
Joe Hatch went 2/3 Run and RBI.
Bob Joy 1/3 and got the Save,

GREENBAUM

J&N made a GREAT Game-Ending double-play 
in the bottom of the last inning to edge 
out Greenbaums 15-13.
For Greenbaums teammates, 
it was another "IF ONLY . . . 
WE Woulda - Coulda - Shoulda Won!"


For Greenbaums:   

Roger Simon 4 for 4  3 RBIs;   
Gary Landman  3 for 3 a single, double & 
triple and 2 RBIs;
Rich Sicardo and Ernie Martin both 3 for 4;
Sammy Duke batted 2 for 3 with a double 
plus a SAC FLY for 2 RBIs;
Bob "Woody" Wood and Eddie Bergamini 
both batted 2 for 4 with 1 RBI.  

Unfortunately, Greenbaums batters left 
runners stranded on 2nd & 3rd Base 
three times - a good hit each inning 
woulda scored 6 more runs FOR THE WIN.   

Losing 15 to 9 in the bottom of the 
last Inning, Greenbaums rallied with 
three consecutive singles  
(well - assuming "A Walk is as Good 
as a HIT") 
and Larry Stewart belted a double 
for 2 RBIs.   
After one out, and three more 
consecutive singles, 
two more runs scored to make the score 15-13 
and with bases-loaded the tying run was on 
2nd base and the winning run was on 1st base - 
with one out.

Stan Silverman then belted a hard-hit 
line-drive 
over Shortstop about 140 feet out . . . 
BUT Short-Centerfielder Jamie Pagan - 
playing Stan as a pull-hitter took 
two or three 
steps and made a leaping catch to ROB Stan of a 
really nice RBI hit.   
Unfortunately, Greenbaum's base runner on 
3rd Base didn't realize that J&N's 
Short-Centerfielder was playing in short 
Left Field and he was doubled-up at 3rd Base - 
on a close play - for a game-ending double play!

After the game, J&N awarded the GAME BALL to 
Jamie Pagan . . . and . . . to "Add Insult to 
Injury" 
HE asked Stan Silverman to Autograph IT.  HA !  

Week 11 (07/29)

GREENBAUM(21) at SAFEGUARD(16)

GREENBAUM

In a hard-fought game at the Sheafe Road Field, 
Greenbaums scored 7 runs in the last 
two innings to beat Safeguard 21-16.

Score by Innings:

Greenbaums: 3 3 2 0 2 4 5 2 = 21
Safeguard:  5 0 2 2 5 2 0 0 = 16


Most Offensive Hitters for Greenbaums:

"Woody" Wood batted 5 for 5, 
scored 3 runs and had 3 RBIs;
Stan Silverman batted 4 for 4 including 
a double and a solo Home Run to lead 
off the 8th inning;
Stan scored 2 runs, and with a 
SAC FLY, he also had 3 RBIs;
Ernie Martin batted 4 for 5 with 
2 doubles, scored twice and had 4 RBIs;
Larry Stewart also batted 4 for 5, 
scored twice and had 2 RBIs;
Jack Whyte batted 3 for 4 and 
scored three times;
Ed Bergamini batted 3 for 5, and had 2 RBIs;

had 1 RBI each;
Roger Simon also batted 3 for 5 
with one run scored and 1 RBI.
Other players contributed two 
hits each for the "Team Win".

Greenbaum's defense made a few errors 
in the first 4 or 5 innings - 
including throwing the ball into the 
infield "to no one in particular" 
a few times rather than hitting the 
Cut-Off Man, which allowed base runners 
to take an extra base and then score on a single.  

BUT Greenbaum's defense held Safeguard 
scoreless in the 7th and 8th innings 
when players made key defensive plays:

In the 7th inning, with a runner on 
1st Base, the batter hit a grounder 
up the middle to Sammy Duke's right,
Fortunately, Sammy refrained from 
reaching out with his bare hand to 
try to catch the ball, and it bounced 
to Short-Centerfielder Gary Landman 
who caught the ball, ran to 2nd Base 
and fired a Strike to First Baseman 
Larry Stewart for a nice double-play.  

the bottom of the last inning, 
the lead-off batter hit another hard-hit 
grounder past Sammy Duke, and Gary Landman 
ran in, made the catch and threw to 
1st Base . . . but his hurried throw 
was low, and Larry Stewart made a great 
short-hop back-handed-catch for the out!

The next batter belted a line-drive to 
Right Field and Stan Silverman made a 
really nice catch for out number 2.

Other Greenbaum's teammates made 
key defensive plays during the game 
for a nice "Team Win".
Sammy Duke was the winning pitcher.

GREENBAUM

With Greenbaum missing 3 key players 
a number of players had to play out

is not allowed 4 second basemen. 
For the first few innings, 
Greenbaums held tough, thanks to a few 
great plays, including Jack Whyte�s 
stab of a liner at the aforementioned 
second base. But then the wheels 
fell off of the bus. 
It was a debacle. Physical and mental 
errors galore. 
George Hammer (Pitcher) went 3/3 with 2 RBI�s, 
Stan Silverman 3/4 with a double over the fence,

second place team playing a seventh
