Yawkey League Baseball at it's FINEST! Let's first take our HATS off to the Brighton Brewers for a GREAT playoff run and Final Series. Special Applauses go to Kevin Christina for the Tremenous effort he put forth for his team on short rest and 95 degree heat. Somerville was down most of the day but never ever did you see quit in their eyes. They battled for 2 in the 6th and a series clinching 3 in the 7th. Sal Mendonca drove home the final two runs with a base hit through the draw in infield scoring Billy Fitz and Tom McDonough with the winning run. Scott Rodgers came up HUGE for Alibrandis in relief of Marc DesRoches going the last three inning and gaining his 3rd playoff win. Mike Powers again leads his troops to another UNBELIEVABLE victory....Thanks Manager of the Year! Somerville wins their 9 straight title and 10 outta 11 Championships.

Rookie outfielder Pete John continues his torrid hitting as the Rockies end the 2007 season on a winnning note.

The Rockies win the Conigliaro Division, finish as the league's #2 seed and now look to the postseason where they will face the South Boston Saints in the first round.

It took extra innings to break a scoreless tie between the Brewers and the Dodgers. A pitching duel, to say the least, was won by Jeremy Dalton, who pitched all 8 innings to earn the complete game victory. He allowed only 4 hits and collected 7 strikeouts en route to his first win of the 2007 season. Shaun Farrar matched Dalton through 7 innings, allowing only 3 hits and no runs. But the Brewer offense finally opened up the scoring in the top of the 8th, with 4 consecutive base hits which produced 3 runs before an out was recorded. Marc Skipper relieved Farrar and quieted the Brewers, but the 3 run lead was enough for Dalton to secure the victory.

Always a battle when these two teams lock horns, the Brewers edge out the Bluefish 2-1 behind a solid pitching performance by first year man Chris Marsh. Tony Iafolla led off the bottom of the second with a double and later scored on a wild pitch to take an early lead. Then,in the third, knowing that runs are hard to come by when facing Demers, the Brewers play a little small ball to scrape a second run across, going ahead 2-0. The Bluefish came within 1 run in the sixth, but left the bases loaded as Brighton escaped the inning with a 1 run lead. Marc Hordon then came in to close the game for the Brewers in the seventh frame. A good night of baseball at Rogers.

A battle between two of the top teams in the Yawkey league at Trum field.

Brewers need a late inning comeback to beat the Braves at Rogers Park. Jeremy Dalton deserved the victory, allowing only 3 hits and 0 earned runs, but 4 Brewer errors cost him the win. But the Brewers had enough pop in their bats to recover from their miscues in the field, led by a 3-run homer each for Marc Hordon and Jay Hadden.
