Pitchers Blair Hennings and Keenan McCracken retained a tight game for QALL Juniors team Dr. Zeeny Teja, tied 3-3 with a combined 9 strikeouts over 3 1/2 innings. Then Max Bridgman hit a teeth-shattering grand slam home run for the orthodontists. Max was smiling on the mound as he struck out the side in the top of the 5th. RUG (Roosevelt-University-Greenlake) braced themselves in the bottom of the 5th when Max hit an RBI triple to complete the cycle in just four at bats. Sam Horowitz also reached base in all four plate appearances, adding four insurance runs and making RUG pitchers co-pay in Team Teja’s home opener.
