TEAM RISP- Blasters: 9 for 17 Silver Sluggers: 8 for 16
First baseman Jim Thome slammed 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI as the Bristol
Blasters defeated the Sterling Silver Sluggers in 10 innings 16 to 15 at
Windblown Stadium.
The game was deadlocked at 15 after nine full innings. Bristol won the hard
fought contest in the 10th inning. After two outs Mo Vaughn hit a
bases-empty home run. Bristol kept the scorekeepers busy in the 3rd inning
which saw them plate 5 runs on 6 hits and the 7th inning which saw them score
6 runs on 6 hits. It was roller coaster of a game as the lead change hands 6
times.
Mike Bielecki(2-2) allowed 2 runs in 2 innings, and picked up the victory.
Bielecki got help from Rigo Beltran who was credited with his 5th save. The
losing pitcher was Butch Henry(5-2) in relief. He surrendered 1 hit and no
walks in 2 innings.
'Ahhh, how sweet it is,' Steve Sustakowski sighed. 'That win feels like a
tall, cool drink of water after spending far too much time in the desert
lately.'
