RESTRUNNR
We play 16 game seasons and through it all it came down to one game. A game of David and Goliath. Stan's team by far was the most dominathing team in the league carrying a 14-4 record including two wins in the playoffs. Restaurant Runners on the other hand struggled with inconsistency all year long going 9-9 including the 2 playoffs wins. But the last two games heading into the finals Restaurant Runners score 48 runs. With timely hitting and solid defense this is when all the pieces to the puzzle came together and we Gelled , each playoff game we were missing key players or guys were injuried , the the sign of a good team is when everyone steps up and plays a solid game all around and fill in for these players. That's exactly what so many players did. We not only grew as Players but we grew as a team. I can honestly say it was a Honor to play with such great teammates that stuck together and belived in themselves and me. My hat goes off to Stan's team a great group of players and freinds, They played a tough game only giving up 11 runs, Restaurant Runners Capitalized on the old term "more than 3 outs a inning". The Game started off with the Pledge of Allegiance, Restuarant Runners huddled up in the dugout and dedicated the game to Hank Picariello, Commissioner Jack Sullivan who passed away a few months ago, and Frank Goberish, We also didicated the season to Johnny "B" Bellezza, Rich Faia both players not playing in the league this year due to injuries. The game started off with RR scoring 2 runs in the top of the first. Stans put two guys on but couldn't score the runners, the second and third inning RR could not score a run, Stans defense shut the rallies down. RR shut Stans down the second and third inning also, leaving the score 2-0 heading into the top of the fourth RR would put up 4 runs with 4 consecutive hits, Making the score 6-0 heading into the top of the fifth. RR would stay hot and score 2 more runs making the score 8-0, But the bottom of the fifth Stan's would push two runs across the board making it 8-2, Restaurant Runners were shut down the next two innings, But the bottom half of the 6th and 7th Stans would score one in the 6th and 2 in the 7th, Cutting the lead down 8-4 heading into the open inning "8th" 5 hits scoring 3 runs too take a 11-5 lead heading into the bottom of the 8th. Stans started the 8th with back to back hits, keeping the come back aliveBut great pitching from Rich Mauceri shut down Stans rally. Making the score Restaurant Runners 11-Stans 5..... I want to Thank Dan Sopchak , Greg Miller, Tony Dalia, Rich Hill for Umpiring the Game. Guys did a great Job!! Thank you To Steve Lynch for the pictures. God Bless each and everyone of you and may we all have a Healthy winter! Stats: Reggie Dolson 3-4 1run 1rbi, Tom Roberts 4-4 3run 1rbi, Mike Vuozzo 2-4 3run 1rbi, Da'Coach 3-3 3rbi, Freddie Patterson 2-4 1runs 1rbi, Joe Kupies 1-4 1run 1rbi, G-man 2-3 1run 1rbi, Jerry Murynec 2-3 , Frank Navarra 1 run, Joe DeMaria Hit the ball hard all game, Lou Post scored 3 runing as a runner, Rich Mauceri 1 rbi "CHAMPIONSHIP MVP RICH MAUCERI " Rich kept the great hitters of Gold's gym, Taxbreakers and Stan's off balance throughout the playoffs. I want to Thank My Son Kris Edwards for Sponsoring our team and his Company "Restaurant Runners".
STANS
So bye bye Monday Senior League Softball. Took our bats and hats to Whitesell but the magic was gone. We didn�t field and we didn�t hit. But Restaurant Runner sure did. Restaurant Runners sure did. Stans didn�t play our best game. Restaurant Runners grounders got through. Their flyballs and our throws were dropped and none of our usual double plays were made. Meanwhile, Restaurant Runners picked up almost every grounder and caught every fly ball. Even screaming line drives. Stan�s hit long flies instead of line drives and we just kept hitting balls at them and they just kept picking them up. Restaurant Runners pitcher Rich Mauceri seemed to get better as the game went on. Restaurant Runners built an early 6-0 lead and Stans didn�t score until the 5th. We crept to 8-5 in the seventh. Striking distance. But then Restaurant Runners tallied 3 in the top of the 8th to put us away. Hitters for Stan�s: Rich Rella 3/3 an RBI. Ed Bergamini 3/3 2 RBI. Rich Sicardo 2/3 a RS. Stan Silverman 2/3 2 RS and an RBI. Frank McHugh 2/3 a RS. Andy Berger 2/3. On a personal note (What else is new) Stan and Eddie picked a great squad this season. We all got along well and it was a pleasure to see everyone each week. The atmosphere was relaxed. Playing time was fair and Stan let us grow as players and men. I hope to see everyone again next year. I especially want to thank Stan for giving so much of himself to sponsor as well as manage the team, giving us old foggies a chance to put on softball uniforms and run around like 11 year olds. Stan, thank you for picking me. I�d run through a fence for you, but I still might curse.<

About our Senior Softball League
The history of the Hudson Valley Monday Seniors Softball League started in Fishkill as the "Fishkill Seniors Softball League" during the summer of 1996. The league was the brainchild of Mr. Nick Perrelle,(deceased 2019) was a retired Chappaqua High School Athletic Director and long time football coach. In 1996 Nick fashioned the idea of having seniors who loved the game of baseball participate in a Senior League of Softball. Nick's primary goal was for the seniors to frolic in this summer sport and become what he called
"THE BOYS OF SUMMER". Through his persistent efforts and guidance, Nick was successful in establishing a six team sponsorship culminating with ninety ball players. Nick assumed the position of commissioner in 1996. He also appointed Art Ryan of Wappingers Falls as the league Secretary/Administrator.
From 1996 to 1998, the league structure had to be put in place and required dedicated people to lead and develop the by-laws, rules, recruit ball players and establish the foundation. Together with a small group of ball players, referred to as "The Advisory Committee", they established the league structure. The Advisory Committee in 1996 consisted of team managers and other players that assisted in the structure of the league. The names of the original advisory committee members were:
Sal Cioffi(Deceased), Jack Dexter, Lou (Lance) DiCocco, Pete Letizia,
Tom Modica (Deceased) , Tom Olsen , Howard Roth, Art Ryan (Deceased),
Al Sollecito(Deceased) , Mike Wysocki(Deceased)
