2011 Finale??????

Wiff-Fall Play ended with a blow out and then a walk off, as the final two games were played on October 22 and October 29.

On the 22nd, seven gamers showed for a delayed start at 10:30. Highlights of the morning included Laura Hume surrendering a mere 6 runs and recording 3 outs! She also had 2 singles along the way. Also, Han-Soo batted away Kurt Mosser's attempt at a double play, protecting the box. This "innovation" was frowned upon, and deemed "interference" and the double play was credited to Kurt.

The game saw the return of the prodigal nurse, Chris Anderson, who managed 2 hits on the day, and allowed but the one run. Kurt swatted his 15th, and final, home run of the season, a two run shot in the third off Glen.

Yesterday was a morning for the stalwarts (except Glen): 35 degrees, maybe, at 9 am, though it was a sunny sky and little or no wind. "Playable" was the commish's call. Peter, Kurt and Matt played a round of 1-on-1-on-1.  Matt took an early lead with 2 off Peter the first time he pitched and another on his second turn at the bump. Peter and Kurt spent the rest of the morning chipping away at the 3 run lead.

Kurt got 2 off Matt in the first inning. Peter scored two off Matt as well during his fourth inning pitched. That included Peter's 10th home run of the season. Peter joins Kurt (15) and Glen (11) with double digits in homers.

Peter pitched the final half inning facing Kurt. Matt held a slim 3-2-2 lead. Peter managed only one out and Kurt strung together 5 hits to plate two. The last hit, a walk off single to drive in the fourth run of the day, came on the season's 2,011th AB. How cool is that? So, as with his beloved Cards' dramatic October trip to the World Championship, Kurt Mosser ended his terrific wiffle season in walkoff style!
