[B]Team Elias 16, Talu Fahn 4[\/B]<\/p>\n
Elias jumped all over Talu Fahn with a pair of eight-run gashes in the first and second innings.<\/p>\n
They bashed nine hits in the opening frame and followed them with a two-run homerun by J.P. Sablan, solo shots from B.J. Nicolas and Gary Cruz, and four other hits.<\/p>\n
Talu Fahn tried to get things going in the third frame, but Elias rebounded on defense to keep a lid on them. Talu Fahn fell short of avoiding the early decision after leaving a runner stranded at second in the next two innings.<\/p>\n
Elias\u2019 Sablan batted 3-for-3 with a homerun, three RBIs, and two runs.<\/p>\n
[B]Check It Out 11, 670 Babes 2[\/B]<\/p>\n
Check It Out led 4-1 after two innings off a sacrifice fly by Jovie Omar, an RBI base hit by Kayna Rogopes, and some errors in the opening frame.<\/p>\n
Check It Out\u2019s Raylani Ogumoro drove in another run in the fourth inning before their top of the lineup blew open the game with six runs in the fifth frame.<\/p>\n
Keolani Rios reached on a fielder\u2019s choice and later stole home, Connie Camacho and Shirley Ada each belted RBI singles, and the other runs came in off errors. <\/p>\n
[B]Manelos 20, G-Ballers 18[\/B]<\/p>\n
Manelos clung to a slim 13-12 edge after three innings and hung on to the lead, 16-15, in the fourth inning off a shot-run blast by Past Alepuyo.<\/p>\n
Both teams left the yard in the fifth inning, and although the G-Ballers fought tooth and nail, scoring in every frame up that point, the Manelos always seemed to have an answer.<\/p>\n
Manelos\u2019 Derrick Abraham hammered a clutch two-run homer in the sixth inning and somehow silenced the G-Ballers in the final stand.<\/p>\n
Manelos\u2019 Abraham batted 3-for-4 with a homerun for three RBIs and two runs, while Shane Mendiola went 3-for-3 with two homeruns for five RBIs and two runs. <\/p>\n
G-Ballers\u2019 Asap Ogumoro swung 3-for-4 with three homers for six RBIs and three runs. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
