Diamondbacks Down Mustangs

The Diamondbacks thought it had earned at least a tie for first place in the 35-and-over National Division with a victory over the Mustangs, but apparently the last scheduled game will decide first place when SM plays Havana. Santa Monica got off to a 2-0 lead on a 2-run HR to left by Sheldon Philip-Guide and never trailed. Robert Lewis paced a 16-hit attack with 3 hits (2 RBI)and Scott Elliott drove in 3 RBI with a double (2-for-4). Jason McClure reached base 4 times on 2 hits and 2 hit-by-pitches. Mike Thompson scattered just 9 hits and struck out 4 for another complete game gem. Scott Mattran was 2-for-3 with a double and 2 RBI for Malibu.
