Game 3 - The last game for July 10th saw Juggies' Brewers narrowly edge out the Mike's Meat Meateors by a single run, going the 6 1/2 innings in the process. With both teams missing some key players, it was a spirited, low scoring battle. Juggies had only 9 batters come to the plate for 3 appearances while the Meateors sent 6 batters for 4 plate appearances in comparison. The Meateors had 17 hits, leaving 12 men on base while Juggies only had 13 hits and stranded only 6 runners. Mark Porter had a triple in the 3rd, Jim Dulle had a double in the 6th to score 2 runs to tie the game at 6. Paul Savard followed up with a single to score Jim, who ran through an obvious STOP sign at third to score the 7th run of the night. With the Meateors unable to score in their half of the final inning, the Brewers were able to enjoy a 7-6 victory.

Game 1 - The Mavericks and Meateors battled to a well played 9-9 tie on a beautiful night at the park. Mikes held a 2-0 lead then a 7-4 lead before having to tie it in the bottom of the sixth. Tim Johnson lead the meat boys going 3-3, 3rbi’s and a great catch in left. Leon Moch and Dave Hammel went 3-4 for the Mavs. Great pitching from both Jim Fink and Dan Hamilton. On a side note Dale Weisgerber may be buying beer for the rest of the season lol.

Game 2 - The Juggies Tap House Brewers defeated a very depleted E & H Astros lineup tonight, 17-12. The Astros were missing Keith, Rick and Frank, so some very notable guys MIA. They did have a super sub in Jim Cooper, who was a perfect 3-3 at the plate. This was a strange game, so many infield hits that ended up scoring runs, and was actually quite comical. Not your picturesque slug-fest. Hits were very close for both teams, 25 - 22 for the Brewers, so it was a close game. Mike Ferre and Mark Porter had 4 hits each for Juggies. Almost everyone had 2 or 3 hits for the Astros. It was a hot, summer night, many thanks to Kasey V, our Juggie owner and sponsor, for providing our team with a feast of pizza and wings after the game. Much appreciated. Good work by the B 2 B boys tonight working their shifts.

Numerous hits and defensive plays on both teams. Would like to thank Harold and Cheryl Enlsen for fattening up both teams after the match. Good umping and announcing. Great night for ball.

Game 2 - The Copper Coulee Casino Silver Foxes were firing on all cylinders in the second game of the night and beat the Logos Rebels 15-6.

For the foxes Boyd Kosolofski was 4 for 4 with a double and 2 RBIs, Robert Jensen was 4 for 4 with a double and 3 RBIs, and Sam Montoya was 3 for 3 with an RBI.

Super sub Walter Pratt made 3 great catches in right field with the sun shining brightly in his eyes to put a damper on any Rebel hopes for a big rally.

Game 3 - Stewart Optical put together a couple of five run innings and scored in a few others as they defeated the Garage Pub Fog 15-5. Jim Stewart had a big night for the Optical team as he hit three long bombs driving in six runs and turning three double plays from short. Darrell Bonagofsky also had a big night at the plate going 4-4 with a home run and five RBI’s, while lead off man Roland Schlenker also went 4-4, scoring every time. Seven other members of the Eye guys had a couple of hits each while Randy Biko pitched a great game mixing up pitches and keeping the FOG off balance all night.
Sherwin Lehman led the Pubs offence going three for three while Russ Cameron, Daniel Morissette, Rod Aman, Ken Longmore, Dieter Stanke and Mike Sills each picked up a couple of hits. They had lots of base runners but hit into three inning ending double plays to limit their offence.
Another beautiful night at the ball park.
