EMASS FAMILY GAMES SUMMARY:

The annual EMASS Family Games were played July 5. The “Tigers”, managed by John Stewart and led by the three sons of Sean Murphy, won the opener 8-7. The “Panthers”, managed by Sheldon Ganz and sparked by the bat and glove of Steve Piccone, came back and took the nightcap, in nine innings, 10-9.

Both games were filled with brilliant fielding, timely hitting, tough pitching and, alas, a few errors and base running blunders. There were two titanic home runs hit, coincidently by sons of the two managers, David Stewart and Jeff Ganz.

Steve Goldstein provided flawless umpiring and the games attracted a large crowd of spouses, children, and grandchildren. All in all it was a terrific day and a great example of the fun that folks of all ages can have playing the game we all love so dearly.
