COLONIALS WIN 13-3, DETROIT FORCES GAME 7

The Colonial Heights Colonials baseball team picked up a much needed win yesterday beating the Meadowbrook Monarchs 13-3 at Shepherd Stadium.  I have to say we didn't play our best game of the season but we did play well enough to win.  With the win yesterday we improved to 10-7 on the season overall and 5-4 in the Central District with 3 games left in the regular season.  We will need to win at least 1 of the next 3 games to finish no worst than a tie for 4th place and if we could win 2 of the 3 games we would finish 3rd in the district. Also in baseball action yesterday the Prince George Royals beat Thomas Dale 7-3.  In the NHL Playoffs yesterday Detroit beat San Jose 3-1 forcing a game 7 in San Jose, after going down 3-0 in the series the Red Wings have battled back to even up the series at 3-3 and I think the Wings are going to win the series now.  Yesterday was not good day at all for my allergies and I very congested for sure this morning, my cheeks are really hurting.  My visit to my Urologist went well yesterday and I don't have to back until next year at this time unless I have another attack.  MICKEY
