Strikeouts : Scooterboy

Finally, fair teams. Well, actually the ONEs looked stronger on paper, with the TWOs suffering from an outfield deficiency. TWOs only had Rube in the outfield, and Monk was promoted to LF and Andy in the RF. If anyone thought that this was a weak outfield, think again. Monk and Andy played stellar defence to withstand the big bats of the ONEs. Andy made an amazing catch of a opposite field line drive from Scooterboy. The hit itself was awesome and looked very much like a homer, but Andy came out of nowhere and plucked the ball out of the air. That was the turning point in the game, as the TWOs was leading 6-5, and the ONEs had 2 runners on base. If Scooter had got that HR, the tables would have turned on the TWOs lead. Geok had another outstanding game at 2nd, putting out rickey 4 times out of 4. She was also blasting the ball into leftfield for singles every time. Monk edged the MBP from Geok's hands due to his fine performance in LF, and his amazing at bats. He had 1 hr, and a couple of standup doubles and some nifty glovework and a strong arm to keep batters at 1st (Frankly, I've never seen Monk play that well... ever. He can retire now, and we'll speak fondly of him forever) ONEs had a much stronger outfield, with amazing range and depth, but they were victimized by the TWOs line singles and doubles.
