Game #1 – Wehrung’s vs. Wackers

Wackers look to get their playoff run started with a sac fly from Bill Brancato, then two run bomb from Alex Freeman.

The one and only Nonny grabs a run in the second inning on an RBI single, before Wehrung’s will finally get on the board. Luke Hendricks gets a run back for Wehrung’s on an RBI double, but their bats would remain cold today. Wackers hit Nonnys smelling salts and swing for the fences in the next couple of innings, getting a solo bomb from Freeman and three run shot from Frank Fusca as they look to pull away in this one. Brancato and Freeman will add RBI doubles late and Wackers will flash the leather as they take this one and move on. Wackers win 16-1.
