Waltham Red Sox 6, Natick Knights 4
2nd inning Natick has runners on 1st & 3rd. A one hopper in the hole at short for the double play and Natick would not score. Later, Doug Flutie doubles to lead off and on a base hit to right field, Dana Levensaler to Dan Pill to Bill Gross at the plate who tags Flutie out. Same inning w runners on the corners, Mike Barthel steps off and fakes to 3rd and the runner off 1st gets in a pickle. Waltham throws the runner from 3rd out at the plate. Ugly moment was when a Blaine fastball glances off Derek Luccini's helmet visor and hits him in the face. He suffered a broken nose. The same inning Blaine gets wild, to go along with the hit batter, he walked four and the Sox get 2 runs. Barthel throws 5 scoreless innings but Natick gets 2 in the sixth and seventh. Jay Wisner comes in with 2 runners on. The Wiz gets 2 strikeouts to get out of it. The Sox hold on for the 6-4 win.

Waltham Red Sox 5, Natick Knights 2
A great battle in game 1 of this years finals.
Red Sox get 2 in the top of the first and would then be baffled by Caccavelli, never seeming to get the 2 out hit when they needed it.
However, for Waltham, Dan Pill was just as great allowing 2 runs on just 3 hits in a 10 inning complete game gem. Pill thought he was out of gas much earlier but still manage to get outs.
Tied in the top of 10, Pete Fricker singled for the 5th time in this game (5-5, 2R) and Natick turns to Blaine in relief. Spadafino singles, and Levensaler makes a "loud out" to left. Mike "Big Game" Barthel, while battling a stomach virus that wouldn't allow him to pitch in the game, would come to the plate and do it again, as he did in the morning game against East Boston. A double to right center for 2 RBI and he came around to score on 2 wild pitches.
Game 2 Tuesday night at Nipper in Waltham, 7pm start |

Excellent 11 inning pitchers duel between Mike Caccavelli and Kevin Locke. Kevin Locke worked through a tough first inning, then went 9 scoreless innings& knocked in the winning run with a 2 rbi double in the 11th for the win. |
