Playing in front of an overflow crowd at New Scotland last night the Cardinals and Arachnids locked horns to determine who would move forward to the 62 finals. The home team Spiders went up early leading 7-1 after 2 helped by several uncharacteristic Cardinal errors. The visitors were forced to play catch up the rest of the way as the Arachnids added more runs and played solid defense. Darrell Duncan, with good control, earned a 9-4 complete game victory mixing standard curves, knuckle curves, change ups, and fastballs. Don Shultis had 2 hits for the Cards and Stefan Koutsakis 3 for the Arachnids. The Arachnids move forward to the best 2 out of 3 62 championship series starting on Monday evening, 5:15 at New Scotland against the winner of the Peppers-Damn Yankees game. The Spider Guys who started out 2-7 have won 8 in a row to now have an overall season record of 10-7. One word-Geritol !
