All-Stars Clash: Canada Evens Up Vs America
On a bright beautiful Sunday, July 24 the Crown Heights Softball All Stars met the Canadian Softball All Stars in Syracuse, NY to have their annual softball tournament. Canada dominated the New York team in the first game, winning 12 – 0, and swept New York in the following two.
Pitcher Eitan Mamon, the best in all of Toronto, struck out six batters and was in control all game. On the flip side Dani Cole, the star pitcher in the Crown Heights Softball League, was injured and unable to stay on the game.
The second game was a little closer with Toronto winning 17 – 16.
Yonah Campuzano made a game saving play at shortstop to preserve the win. “It was the most exciting game that I have played in a while” said Yitzi Cole.
The game started with Shua Cole Pitching and and the Americans jumped all over the Canadians highlighted by a Grand slam off the Bat of Zevi Wachtel that struck fear in the hearts of the Canadians.
The Canadians promptly jumped out to a 16 – 8 lead but the lead was short lived and the Americans came roaring back against Eitan to tie the game, but it was not meant to be for the Americans, the Canadians scored a run in extra innings to take game two.
A Bar-B-Que was served after the second game with Junior Chef Dovid Steinhauser manning the grill, and doing a fine job, serving rib eye steaks, chicken breasts, burgers, hot dogs and knishes.
A special thank you to the House of Glatt for partially sponsoring the event.
By the time game three was played, both teams were thoroughly exhausted but Canada came out on top. Which gave all three games to the Canadians.
It was a big rebound from last years results which NY won all 3 games. It was very evident that Canada came to play and brought out a much better team. The Americans were unable to match the fire power and hunger of the Canadians.
There already is a buzz about playing next year to see who are the real champions.
There was more than 200 bottles of water or sports drink that was consumed during the day and that still was not enough.
A special thank you to Nachman Forer, Daniel Cole and Zevi Steinhauser for arranging the day.
