[CANNIBAL]

who pitched for burg?
who pitched for zt?

[Burg_Grad_77]

Andrew Elliot for Burg, I'm not sure who started for ZT, but I think Davis was the kids name that came on in relief in the 4th.

Great job with the updates on the forum. Didn't see the game or listen on the radio, but reading the updates on here got the blood pumping a little. Great win for Burg, stay focused.

Tough loss for ZT, with that many hits and walks, I'm sure they feel they should have won the game.

Again, great job to the kids at burg, and good luck in the finals.
