Leaside Team Red were runners-up at the Lou Gehrig Iron Horse Tournament in Buffalo with the final game a true heartbreaker. They had won four games to face Victor NY for the championship. They were, as Mark Vendramini reports, one inch from total victory. They had won the semi in what Mark calls a “13-12 walk off.” In a final game of six innings, Team Red was tied when Victor NY scored one in the sixth. Leaside had the tying run on third, and the winning run on second with two out but could not push them across. Final was 9-8. It was a worthy game effort and a tournament showing to make Leaside proud. To get to the finals Team Red beat Victor Emmett 11-0, Grand Island 18-1, Cayuga 9-5. Thanks guys.
