RE: Comment from BNS
Here’s Jake’s writeup of last night’s game. What is a playoff “birth”? Is that like being born again?
B61, Clinches Playoff Birth, One Win Away From Home Field Advantage
In a game they had to have, B61 pulls out a victory in dramatic fashion. B61 currently sits in second place in the East division, but a hard charging BNS team is pressing them for the spot. So when they took the field on Tuesday, they had a lot to play for. The however didn't start in a positive fashion. Through the first three innings Angry Wade's held a 4 - 0 lead. But AW played a very loose and sloppy defensive game and allowed B61 to tie the game in the top of the third. And that set the stage in the fifth inning for B61's O'Henry to hit a Chris G. pitch to deep right center field for a three run home run and take a 7 - 4 lead late in the contest. It seemed as if a giant weight was lifted off B61's collective shoulders. They would play sparkling defense the rest of the way. With the victory B61 clinches a playoff birth and with just one more win B61 can clinch home field in round one of the playoffs. JP

Subject: Comment from BNS
From the YMCA softball site for which Jake happens to write the sole commentary:
Now with five straight wins and a 5 – 4 record BNS needs just one more win to guarantee themselves a birth in the playoffs. But in usual confident fashion have their sites set on second place in the division. With a little help from other teams BNS can still catch B61 for second place. The stretch run is looking real interesting. JP
