The Sommeliers sweep the North Bergen Dawgs in a barnburner

The Vineyards entered this game at 6 - 0, atop the Hubie Brooks Division.  They faced a familiar opponent today in the North Bergen Dawgs.  NB Dawgs started out strong, up 7 to 1 through 3 innings.  Lead off man & Captain scored 3 runs to lead the team, while Louie struggled at the cleanup spot going 1 for 3 with a K.  Unusual for him.  The bottom of the order was what was killing them, batters 7 through 12 ended up going 3 for 16, with 2 walks & no runs scored.  Ughhh!  TA Vineyards just kept grinding scoring chunks at a time, 2 runs here 2 runs there.  Before we knew it, we were in the bottom of the 9th with Vineyards trailing by 2.  Kyle doubled, Conor doubled, McMann was intentionally walked(WOW!)  & Kev sealed the victory with a Sac Fly RBI.

Game 1 Final:
TA Vineyards - 9
North Bergen Dawgs - 8

Game 2 was more of the same.  NB Dawgs found themselves up 6 to 1 after 3 innings.  John Q came up big with 3 RBIs as well as Jose (both tied for the team lead).  It just seemed the Dawgs infield communication was off, however that seems to be the case when Mena is on the mound.  Kudos to PJ for batting 1.000.  Shout out to Luigi for scoring 2 runs!  Kel finally got a hit, he was 0 for his last, ummm, 30???  Again, credit the composure, stamina & drive of the TA Vineyards.  They kept chipping away, scoring 1, 2, 2, 6 & 2 runs back to back to back to back to back innings.  Team Captain smoked a solo home run to get things going for the team, he led the team with 5 RBIs!  Every member of the Vineyards has at least 1 hit.  Rich led the team with 3 runs.  The Vineyards have youth on their side, teams need to watch out!

Game 2 Final:
TA Vineyards - 13
North Bergen Dawgs - 8
