Attman's Deli vs Kings
Game 1
The opening day double header between Attman's and the Kings ended in a sweep for
Attman's who took the opener in five innings 14-1. The Kings opened the t-1st
with a Kenny Salzman leadoff homerun. It was all downhill for the
Kings from there. Attman's scored 4 runs in b-1st, the
key hit a Warren Scudder 2-run HR to deep RF. With 1 out in the b-2nd, Attman's
Rob Ressin lined a shot off the forehead of Kings starter Jeff Goldstein. After
a 10 minute delay, Goldstein was able to leave the field under his own power (He
was able to drive home himself after the doubleheader and Sunday night reported
that, other than a huge lump on the forehead, he was fine). Attman's then went on to score 6 runs in the inning--the key hit a 2-RBI triple
by Detour Dave Sandler. Attman's added their final 4 runs in the b-3rd led by
RBI singles from Sandler and Rick Farley.
Game 2

against Kings starter Chuck Grant before the Kings closed to 12-8 in the sixth and 12-11 with the tie run on
second and the winning run on first in the bottom of the seventh with two out. The game ended
when Eisenberg was able to retire Rick Amernick on a routine fly to left field.
Hitting stars for Attman's were the shortstop Ricky Farley who went 5-7 with a walk and 5 RBI, and Warren Scudder who was 6-7 and hit for the cycle, scoring 4 times and gathering 6 RBI. Bruce Eisenberg gained both wins.
