Galaxy, after facing a tough foe in the Gulls, moved on to face an equally tough opponent in the surging George's Expert Auto (GEA) team. GEA has played well of late and looked to live up to fans and media expaectations of the young club. They would have a stern test against the good pitching and good bats of the veteran Galaxy group in just a one game playoff.The young southpaw, C. Pantano took on R. Moleti in what turned out to be a very close ballgame. However the veteran got the best of the young hurler, as C. Pantano let his emotions get the best of him as GEA lost a barn-burner. Galaxy, coming off an emotion-filled, extra-innings victory over the Gulls extended their season by playing some gritty softball. The veteran club has mede the necessary changes and is riding a wave of momentum that could carry them to yet another crown.
R. Moleti was the story in this one, notching four strikeouts and carrying a shutout into the seventh and final inning.
In typical fashion, GEA waited until the latter innings to get their bats going, but Galaxy's defense shut the door on the young club's season with a 6-4 victory and move on to face the defending champ Brickyard.
