In our second game the Marlins and the Cubs pounded each other for 10 innings before a dramatic walk off "Grand Slam" ended the game in the bottom of the 10th with the Cubs taking a 13 - 9 victory. Steve Stropolo was the hero going 4 for 5, and a walk off grand slam in the bottom of the 10th. Greg Cahill, Steve Ceravolo, Bart Maloy and Steve Schneck each had 2 hits to add to the Cubs offense. Ceravolo picked up the win for the Cubs. The Marlins were led by Rory Cadres 3 for 4, 1DBL.: James Gibson 2 for 3, 2DBL, 1RBI; Doug Smith 3 for 4. Bo Lovett pitched the entire game in picking up the loss in the bottom of the 10th.

**Letter about Cajun Classic at Zephyr Field**

Hello to all my friends in the New Orleans area.
We wanted to get a feeler from you and your players to see if you are interested in bringing a team to the tournament again this year. We are looking for the weekend of the October 7-10th. We are probably only going to have 3 days this year. Hopefully 3 full days. Or we can look at starting on Thursday and having Sunday as a rain day. Especially since the weather has cost us a few days last year. The cost is $2500 for a team of 14 players.
Mark I know that you have already expressed interest. I would appreciate it if you could get back to me by mid week with some kind of answer.
