In Montville's 1st, Casey Vielee singled, Taylor Meytrott doubled, David Mecca walked, and Mike Boggi doubled. Billy Schmolze walked, and Brandon Glyck hit into a fielders choice. Montville scored two in the 1st. Montville did nothing in the 2nd, and Edison didn't score any runs. In the 3rd David Mecca singled, and Mike Boggi walked with two outs, but that was all. Edison scored one run in the 3rd. In the 4th for Montville Brian Danzi singled, Brandon Glyck walked, but again they were LOB (left on base). Edison scored no runs in the 4th inning. In the 5th inning Casey Vielee slapped a ground ball that went right under his glove. Taylor Meytrott doubled, Mike Boggi hit a double, and ran right past Coach Meytrott's stop sign, and forced the throw to third, which was thrown away. So three runs scored there including Mike Boggi, but that was all. Edison scored 6 runs in the 5th, including a grand slam. Edison scored two runs again in the 6th, and Montville didn't score any runs in the 6th. That made it a 10-5 Loss for Montville. It was a good game, until Edison broke out in the 5th. There were also some close call's, but what are you going to do???!!!

All Stars-Montville vs. Lincoln Park 6/17/00

Well it was a hot and humid day on Saturday as Montville took on Lincon Park. Well as Montville led off in the first, there was two outs, and Josh Gajdos came to the plate, with two strikes he took the pitcher the other way for a two out single, which started a rally because the next batter was Mike Boggi. Josh Gajdos Stole second, and again with a 0-2 count Mike Boggi came
through with a two out hit, which scored Josh Gajdos. Up came David Mecca
who hit a hard shot to score Mike Boggi. Well nothing much happed in the next four innings, but in the top of the sixth, with no outs, and no one on, with Lincon Park leading 3-2 Bobby White Creamed the ball for a Ground Ruled Double into the woods, next up was Taylor Meytrott who got a hit a shot which Taylor Meytrott ran out for a Triple to score Bobby White. The next two hitters up made out, and that brought Mike Boggi to the plate again he creamed the ball into the gap for another triple, that made it back to back triples, and also a 4-3 game (Montville). It was the bottom of the sixth, and they called for Hank Lyon to pitch. He faced three batters, and sat three down; nobody could touch him, except for one or two kids who grounded out rather then striking out! sThat gave Montville a 4-3 victory over Lincoln Park.
