Game 1: Philly Junk (5-0) vs. Beers (2-2-1)
Beers are quiet in the 1st and 2nd innings while Philly Junk scores 2 on Shane Hanna's 2 run homer in the 1st and 2 more in the 2nd on Evan Porter's home run. In the 3rd, Beers comes alive and scores 8 while batting around. Doubles from Josh Goldberg and Ryan Whitley lead the charge.

After 4, it's 12-9 favor of Philly Junk. We'll see no more scoring from Beers despite Goldberg's 2nd and 3rd double of the game, while Philly Junk adds 2 more in the final innings on doubles from Tom Ivers and KC Ingram. Philly Junk holds on to win, 14-9.

Game 2: Just Food (0-5) vs Kings Corner (1-3-1)
Just Food looks promising scoring 3 in the 1st. King's corner answers back with 7. A leadoff triple from Jarret Kerns, doubls from CJ Snyder and Russell Miller, along with Bill Brancato's homer do most of the damage. Just Food retakes the lead in the 2nd scoring 7 on John Sandy's triple and Kyle Saba's double. King's Corner will not be outdone, however, and score 17 in the 2nd. Doubles from Brancato, Frank Fusca, Matt Schaub, Bill Shallcross, CJ Sydner and Mat Crowell highlight the inning. Just Food will score one more run in this game, but King's Corner puts it away by scoring 10 in the 3rd. Doubles again highlight the inning, from Schaub and Crowell, as well as Jason Pane. King's Corner wins easily, 39-11.

Game 3: Team Horsham (2-3) vs. Dingers (2-3)
I predict one of these teams is gonna be at .500 after this game...
Team Horsham draws 1st blood after Brett Saverio doubles and scores on Brad Humski's sac fly. Dingers retaliate with 4 runs with Eric Poppler and Mike Casbar tripling, and Bayley Jamanis doubling. Team Horsham can't score in the 2nd or 3rd, despite Savario's 2nd double of the evening. Dingers are also quiet in the 2nd and 3rd. In the 4th, Team Horsham scores 5 on Dan Linebergers double and a slew of singles. Dingers get 2 in the 4th, on walks and Jaminis's 2nd double of the game. With Brian McFarlane doubling and scoring in the top of the 5th, Team Horsham takes a temporary lead, but Dingers score 4 in the bottom to retake the lead. Team Horsham pours on the gas in the 6th, scoring 8. Mike Harmon's 3 run blast, along with a triple from Mike Bobrin and doubles from Brian McEachern, Kevin Smith and Nate Vicenty get the job done. Team Horsham take 4 run lead in the top of the 7th, and Dingers can only score 3 despite Dave Iatarola legging out a triple. Team Horsham hangs on to win and go to .500, 16-15.

Dookie Brewster scores 3 in the 5th, while Wire2Wire tacks on another run in the bottom of the 5th. They'll add 7 in the 6th, playing small ball with walks and singles. Despite batting around in the top of the 7trh and scoring 8, Dookie Brewster can't catch Wire to Wire Sports Podcast. Nice effort in the 7th from Jon Poore (HR), James McLaughlin (HR) and Chris Hackney (2B). Wire to Wire Sports Podcast win 24-21.
