Game 6:
San Diego vs. Reno Stars

Entering the first playoff game in five trips to Arizona the Stars give up 3 in a shaky 1st inning but answer back with 2 of there own and take advantage of some San Diego mistakes and some timely hitting and build up an 11-6 lead by the 7th inning. Dudley, given the game ball and stating “I will not lose this game” did just that putting together a gutty performance and hangs on with men on 1st and 3rd with 2 outs and a 1 run lead in the scary 9th inning to get the “W” and sent the Stars to the semi’s with a 11-10 victory. Manager Gary Arlitz’s goatee turns completely white during the 9th inning.

    I wanted to take a moment to thank the players that committed to going to Arizona this year.
This was one of our best groups to go. The team unity was above and beyond, there was one purpose to this team, WIN. Egos were checked at the door. Dave Diegle, Mike Ellis and Dave Rider were last minute additions which proved to be huge additions as they all contributed. Tom Summy, Mike Croteau and Kenny Schmidt all were a big help on the Reno side as I coordinated plans from Vegas.
Having been away for 1 year now it was great to see old friends and play some ball with them again.
Thanks guys.

Some of our players that stood out this year in Arizona:
Nate Kerr: Stellar Defense throughout , scored 7 runs
Tony Alverado: Stellar D, big hits , left it all on the field.
Mike Croteau: Solid D at 3rd, big hits, Caught a little as well.
Tom Summy: Huge hits, Clutch at the plate.
Nate Muzzi: Huge tournament for Nate, set the tone for our offense.

Dave Diegle: Heart!!, sucked it up and played a lot of innings behind the plate    and huge hits in the clutch.
Tim Reynolds: Solid throughout, Mr. Dependability.
Brian Dudley: Huge, gutty outings on the bump. Got a sweet bunt down as well.
Collin Black: Solid D, some nice hits. Mr. Utility
