Mike Grenci went six beautiful, scoreless innings on Sunday, and Craig Feeney launched a two run bomb deep over the center field fence, and all looked right with the Old Reds world. But they play nine, and that would be all the OR's would scratch across on wily veteran George Kerst, until we scratched out a teasing add on in the 9th, but by then the Phillies had scored 7 in the 7th and 8th and the fate of this one was effectively over.

The Old Reds had their chances against Mr.Kerst, but couldn't get the timely hit to make a the lead more substantial, and the Phils eventually made them pay. So the win streak is stopped at 2, but we hope to start a new one next Sunday at 10 AM at Seminole High School against the A's, who got their first win of the spring last week.

Good games by Mr. Grenci, who pitched six shutout innings before tiring, Dave Bagwell had a pair of hits, and stopped the bleeding on the mound in the 7th, Rich Fuentes had another double and Mark Kromer had a hit and scored a run.

Player of the game goes to Craigie, who redirected one of the few mistakes George made into the parking lot, and added a walk for good measure.
