The was the 2nd week of Dobbs Ferry and we had a moment of silence before the games . This was 5 days after the terrorism attacks in NYC and Washington and Pa.

In the first game Appell faced Hewes and Hewes 's team won 8-5 in 9 innings. The strike zone was expanded and became a talked about issue during both games. It certainly helped the pitchers a lot; the batter had to swing at everything. Here is the line score:

		1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R  H  E

Hewes W		3 0 4 0 0 0 0 1 0 8  14 2

Appell L 	0 1 1 2 0 0 0 0 1 5  12 2

Liebowitz homered for Hewes's team and Lawrence, Balento, Appell and Schneider homered for Appell's.

In the second game it was Naranjo against Rosengard and Naranjo's team won 15-10 in 9 innings. Here is the line score:

		1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R  H  E HR

Rosengard L 	4 3 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 10 20 2 3
(6-10)

Naranjo W 	5 0 5 0 5 0 0 0 x 15 19 1 3 
(2-0)

Lawrence, Vernick, Naranjo and Schmerler got 12 of the 19 hits. A grand slam by Schmerler sealed the victory for the home team.
