B. Serino faced off against R. Moleti in a matchup of two possible future NSL Hall of Famers. A contrast in pitching styles, with Serino relying on his knuckler and Moleti looking to blow you away with the high heater.
Serino has been dominant as of late and his knuckler was working again, carrying a 4-0 lead into the top of the seventh inning.
With two on and two out it was once again tis-himself, N. Liston and the plate. Liston hit a screaming-pee to the gap in right center and rounded third as the ball made its way back to the infield. In a major base running blunder, Liston was gunned down, preserving the victory for the Barbarians and moving them into a tie in first with NFL.
Monday was a matchup between bitter rivals, NFL and GEA. GEA got the better of NFL in their first matchup with the comeback of the year. NFL was looking to right the ship after a heartbreaking loss to the Barbarians.
An incredibly competitive ballgame ended up a tie after regulation. In extra innings it was a back and forth slugfest, with each teams exchanging runs through ten innings. Both J. Moleti and C. Pantano pitched their hearts out in a game that went two and a half hours. In the top of the eleventh GEA stormed forward with four runs and shut down NFL in the bottom to sweep the season series.

Defending champ can't be discounted, but playing poorly as of late.
