Niagara Falls Canada
Storm's Fury took game 3 from Red Hot Chili Pepper to win the
NFMFL finals 3-0. Final score last night was 4-1 behind a great
pitching performance from Rich Vassos. Fury's Phil John smacked
a homerun in the first inning but the Pepper got that one back
in the fourth on a two out single from Craig Smith. The Fury
took control in the bottom of the fifth after a 30 minute rain
delay. Mark Korten opened the inning reaching base on a error.
Phil John's bunt single eventually scored along with Korten when
Adam Dearborne laced a double in the alley. Tommy Watkinson drove
Dearborne home with a double of his own. That was all Vassos
needed as he finished up with a three hitter. Andy Hicks pitched
well in the loss. The Fury took game two earlier this week. The
Fury jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the third inning, Rob Greatrix
gapped a two out triple and Adam Dearborne followed up with a
run scoring double down the third base line. That was all the
scoring until the Fury broke it open in a three run fifth. Ray
Carr opened the inning with a shot over the centre field fence
and Mark Korten followed with a single, Tom Watkinson drew a
walk and both would later score on a Scott Wagar single. That
was all the scoring as the Fury would wind up 4-0 winners. Wagar
had it going as he threw a 2 hitter and struck out 17. Andy Hicks
again pitched well in the loss and Pete Kucharek and Jeff Kraneyk
had hits for the Pepper.

The league has one final piece of business, it's annual awards
banquet which will be held at one of our sponsors, Beam Me Up
