League Notes
In off the field news, this past weekend fifteen players of the Corner Tavern and Citystyle softball teams left their gloves at the field and joined together for a Sega golf and hockey tournament. The tourney lasted throughout the day and into Saturday night. Scott Grant netted the hockey title and Timmy Ostiguy won the golf tournament. Plenty of laughs were shared by all who participated. mike "Late Night Chef" Linskey nearly brought the house down when he tried to lite the old kitchen stove. Although quick to turn the gas on, Mike was a bit slow in in getting a match lit and placed down near the pilot. By the time he did the old oven was filled with gas and the result was a quick burst of flame. Luckily, nobody was hurt but Billy Collins was so close, he could give you the specific details of the inferno.
