Fantastic Baby! leads Masters, two-way tie in B Fanihi

SOS Bar & Grill's Fantastic Baby! is back in the driver's seat of the Saipan Electronic Dart Association's Masters division, while there is a bottleneck between Joe's Steakhouse's Oneshot and Bammy's Restaurant & Bar's DJ Fish for the top spot in the B-Fanihi after last week's games in the 2012 Summer/Fall Bud Light Dart League.

Masters Fantastic Baby! pelted Sand's Bar-caboose Juvy Especialst (22-80), 14-3, at home last Wednesday to swipe the division lead by six games.

Although Fantastic Baby! improved its record to 67-35, it benefited greatly from an eyebrow raising 13-4 home upset by Joe's Dart Seekers (61-41) over former frontrunner Es'y Kitchen's Diamond Force (61-41). The Dart Seekers moved from fourth place to a share of second as a result of their stunner.

In other results, Oceanside Bar & Grill's M-Destroyers (45-57) edged SOS's Mixblood Rookies (42-60), 9-8, on the road and the SOS Jokers (53-49) capped a nice 10-7 road upset over VFW Post 3457's Maharot Crew (57-45).

Notables remain a 160-high in by Diamond Force's Rick Elefante and a 128-high out by Maharot Crew's Wilson Quiban.

Then on Thursday, DJ Fish stirred up a 10-5 road win over Oceanside's Shooters (33-57) and ended up tangled with Oneshot, which dropped a 6-9 upset at home to IT&E Na'Gupu (52-38) of Naked Fish.

In other results, VFW's Naughty Boyz (51-39) gained some ground from fourth place with a strong 12-3 home victory over Es'y's Taya Guaha (33-57), while Es'y's Kitchen Darters (46-44) routed Jonny's Rehab (33-57), 11-4, also at home.

Notables remain a 160-high in by Naughty Boyz' John Cabrera and a 121-high out by Oneshot's Scott Guerrero.

In the B Flame Tree, Kyodai cruised past Bammy's TaK'Ka Hao (38-52), 11-4, at home to stretch its lead to 10 with its 63-27 record.

Joe's Real Deal and Naked Fish's Team Exotic are knotted up in second place with mirrored cards of 53-37, as the former bumped off Sand's Juvy Refalauns (33-57), 10-5, and the latter snuck past the Dart K'nhytes (37-53), 8-7. Also recording a home win was Bammy's Lilapuching (46-44), which triumphed over VFW's Dutty Gunz (37-53), 10-5.

Notables remain a 152-high in by Kyodai's Ton Tomokane and a 113-high out by his teammate, Allen Cabrera.

In the C division, Hafa Mas went into Sand's and skunked Juvy Aschoascho (24-66), 15-0, to get a little taste of first place with its 63-27 slate.

Hafa Mas profited from a close matchup between C division co-leaders Sand's Lupeyt (62-28) and Bammy's Zyndikato (61-29). Lupeyt won at home, 8-7.

In other results, SOS's fourth-ranked Joker Royal (51-39) routed Island Apparel's OH! MG (41-49), 13-2, in a road match held at Naked Fish; VFW's Warriors (49-41) clipped Oceanside's Shottas (36-54), 8-7, on the road; and Jonny's Sparks (39-51) defeated Oceanside's M-Side Shooters (24-66), 9-6, at home.

Notables include a 150-high in by OH! MG's Carol Chargualaf and a 138-high out by Sparks' Isaac Aguon.
