THIS WAS A VERY GOOD YEAR FOR COLT/PALOMINO WHICH SAW SEVERAL NEW COACHES, SOME FROM OUT OF TOWN, AS WELL AS SOME VETERAN COACHES. WE HAD 164 PLAYERS WHO PLAYED IN THIS LEAGUE. WE HAD SOME PROBLEMS WITH THE WEATHER BUT WITH MAKEUPS, ONLY 6 TEAMS LOST ONE GAME EACH BECAUSE TIME PLAINLY JUST RAN OUT. WE TRIED TO PLAY A 17 GAME SCHEDULE AND IT ALMOST WORKED OUT FOR EVERYONE. WE HAD TO PLAY SOME WEEKS OF 4 AND 5 GAMES IN A ROW. WE PLAYED WHEN WE HAD THE FIELDS TO PLAY ON.
AND FOR THE MOST PART, THE PLAYERS DID THEIR JOBS IN GETTING TO THE FIELDS EVERY
GAME. I WISH TO PERSONALLY THANK ALL THE COACHES FOR GIVING THEIR TIME AND
DEDICATION TO THESE YOUNG MEN. IT IS BECAUSE OF COACHES LIKE YOU THAT MAKE OUR
LEAGUE THE ONLY PLACE TO PLAY SUMMER BASEBALL.

THE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME DOWN TO BLACK VS. ORANGE. LEFTY RICK KEHOE STARTED FOR ORANGE AND REALLY KEPT BLACK OFF BALANCE WITH HIS PITCH SELECTION OF FASTBALL AND CHANGEUPS. ORANGE TOOK THE EARLY LEAD WHEN DAN FLAHERTY HIT A SOLO SHOT IN THE SECOND INNING. ORANGE TACKED ON THREE MORE IN THE 4TH WHEN JEFF MINARIK, DAN FLAHERTY AND JIM PICKHAM SCORED.
TWO MORE RUNS WERE ADDED IN THE 5TH WHEN RICK KEHOE AND JEFF MINARIK SCORED.
BLACK GOT THEIR ONLY RUN IN THE 5TH WHEN JIM SURA DOUBLED HOME TIM WILKAS WHO
ALSO HAD DOUBLED.                                                                                        

I WISH TO CONGRATULATE ORANGE AND BLACK FOR MAKING IT TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.
I ALSO SEND KUDOS OUT TO TEAL AND GOLD FOR BEING IN THE CONSOLATION GAME WHICH
WAS WON BY TEAL.
I LOOK FORWARD TO MANY OF OUR PLAYERS COMING BACK FOR BASEBALL NEXT YEAR AT THE COLT/PALOMINO LEVEL. I HOPE EVERYONE HAS A GREAT OFFSEASON, AND WE'LL SEE YOU ON THE FIELD.
