Casino 13, Lefty's Bar & Grill 10
The closest game of the night was like a form-fitting skirt worn to a buffet. It was tight until the very end. Tied 10-all in the seventh, the Casino's Anthony Anderson (4-for-4) jacked a 3-run homer and then the D sent Lefty's down 1-2-3 in the home seventh to win the game. Casino (15 hits): Joe Reali 3 hits (double), 3 runs. Matt Stacey 3-run homer, double, 2 runs. Gretchen Wagner 1 hit, 3 runs. Jill Morse hit, run. Lefty's (14 hits): Buffalo Rixon 3 hits (HR/double), 3 runs. Nicole Buchwalter 3 hits (HR), 1 run. Frank Salvoni 2-for-2 (HR). Jen Embree hit, run.
Firefighters 28, Group Six 11
No one was going to put out this fire. The Firefighters served notice by finishing third in last year's post-season tournament, and did not look like they missed a beat judging by their powerful performance Wednesday. The Firefighters opened with a 7-hit, 7 run first and tacked on another 4 runs off 5 hits in the second. Group Six hung tough and trailed 15-10 in the fifth, but KFD put them on ice with an 11-run outburst in the sixth. Firefighters (31 hits): Matt Christian 5 hits (HR/triple), 4 runs. Karlee Maratua 5 hits, 3 runs. Keith Potter 4 hits, 3 runs. Ken Edwards 4 hits, 4 runs. Alysia Heyer & Pam Rudolph 2 hits, 2 runs each. Group Six (16 hits): Andy Konigsmaier 3 hits (triple/double), 2 runs. Jim Carlson 2 hits (triple/double), 2 runs. Erin Resko 2 hits, 1 run.

The Pointers were on cruise control, leading 7-1 in the third, courtesy of a grand slam by Robin Sarchett. View Point (19 hits): Jeff Sarchett 3 hits (HR/double), 2 runs. Wendy Hossman 3 hits (triple/double), 2 runs. Rod Watson 3 hits (2 doubles), 2 runs. Sue Mulcahy 2 hits, 2 runs. Zenergy (8 hits): Warren Christiansen 3 HR, 5 RBI. Mike Belliard HR. S.Zolac single, run.
SV Associates 17, Kennedy Mortgage 1
The trouble with having radio personalities on your team is that they are all talk. Plus, if they do a morning show by the time the game rolls around it is waaaay tooooo laaaate. Sun Valley played a little bingo belting 19 hits to Kennedy's 4. Why does the musical group the Dead Kennedy's come to mind? SV (19 hits): Tyler Wheeler 3 hits (HR), 2 runs. Tom Harnig 2 hits, 3 runs. Shannon Bakkar 2 hits, 2 runs. Kennedy (4 hits): Tom Sparks double, run. Kate Mahoney 1 hit. Tyler Knore double. Shannon Flavin double.
