Majors: 5/7/03
Campbells 6, Peterson 5
 
  In a tightly played mid-season game between two teams tied for 3rd place, Campbells
Boathouse prevailed in a 6-5 nail-biter over Peterson and Peterson.
  Starters Alex Butt (for Campbells) and C.J.Gamber (Peterson) both got through the 1st
inning with the score tied 0-0.
  Peterson put up 4 runs in the 2nd on a Ben Hartzell double, a couple walks and a dropped
fly ball that set up a key hit by Brad Wenzel.  Campbell's got a run back in the second
but could have had more while Peterson's CF Brian Mehalick threw two runners out at the plate
as Butt walked, Mark Fanelli singled, Brendan McElhenney walked Patrick Schramm was HP'ed and
Patrick Smith had the RBI single.
  In the 3rd, Butt held Peterson scoreless as he struck out the side sandwiched around singles
by Hartzell and Ryan Luffey.  Butt's pitching line - 3IP, 3ER, 8K's, 3BB's.  In the bottom of
the inning, Campbells took the lead with 4 runs on singles by Matt Giardinelli and Stephan Tull,
an HP of Mike Caramanico and a bases loaded triple by "Soup" Butt. McElhenney scored Butt on a
ground ball.
  In the 4th, with Campbells leading 5-4, both teams changed pitchers as Campbells brought on
Patrick "Hooch" Smith and Peterson tied the game as speedy Jackson Buttery walked and circled
the bases on a wild throw to center.  In the bottom of the inning, Peterson brought on reliever
Stephen Weathers.  With two out, "Sarge" Quintans singled, got to second on a WP, and Mikey
Caramanico drove in what would turn out to be the game winning RBI on a solid single to left.
  That was all that Patrick Smith needed as he pitched scoreless 5th and 6th innings to seal
his 1st Major League victory and finished with 3IP, 5K's, 0ER's, 2BB's.
