Game Highlights

The 2002 Ale House season is officially over.  The team would like to say  "Thank You" to Brian Gilchrist and the Ale House for sponsorship and to all of the great fans who supported our team.  See you next season!

(PLAYOFFS - Round Two - Best of Three - Game 2)
Ale House vs. Ale House II - 8/13/02)
The Ale House games are always competitive and intense.  However, the beginning of this playoff game was bizarre.  At 7:55PM, with an 8:00PM game time, the Ale House had six players.  The game started late with the Ale House fielding eight players to start and Ed Charette on the mound.  The Ale House II took a quick 3-0 lead in the first and then a 5-0 lead after five innings.  The Ale House then bounced back and took a 7-5 lead heading into the top of the seventh on a three run homer by Mike Ward.  The Ale House II never quit and they scored three on a based loaded two out double.  The Ale House failed to score in the bottom of the seventh.  The Ale House did finish with 10 players in the field and Mark Capano on the mound.  The final score was 8-7 in favor of the Ale House II.  The Ale House II wins the series 2-0.

(PLAYOFFS - Round Two - Best of Three - Game 1)
Ale House vs. Ale House II - 8/8/02)
It was a game full of suspense.  The Ale House jumped out to a 2-0 lead on a two run homer by Ed Charette and then a 4-1 lead on a two run homer by John Anderson.  After that, the game fizzled for the Ale House as the Ale House II exploded for six runs in the bottom of the sixth inning to put the game away.  The final score was 11-6 in favor of the Ale House II.  The Ale House II leads the series 1-0.

(PLAYOFFS - Round One - Best of Three - Game 2)
Ale House vs. Sadie's Mud Dogs - 8/6/02)
It was a much different game than the first.  Sadie's Mud Dogs jumped out to a 2-0 lead.  The Ale House went up two and then the Mud Dogs tied it in the top of the sixth.  A dramatic center field home run by Phil Williams capped the win in the bottom of the sixth as Mark Capano held the Mud Dogs to three quick outs in the top of the seventh.  On a down note, Mike Bendon was ejected from the game in the first inning for arguing a third strike call and as a result will be suspended for four games.  The final score was 5-4.  The Ale House wins the series 2-0.

(PLAYOFFS - Round One - Best of Three - Game 1)
Ale House vs. Sadie's Mud Dogs - 8/2/02)
The Ale House demonstrated a lot of patients.  The Ale House took a quick 3-0 lead heading into the bottom of the third.  Sadie's Mud Dogs came right back.  The Ale House took the lead again, but the Mud Dogs came back.  The Mud Dogs then went up 10-6, but the Ale House answered right back with a big inning putting the Ale House up 15-10.  It was an exciting game with some intense plays at home, but the Ale House pulled it out.  The final score was 15-12.  The Ale House leads the series 1-0.

(Ale House vs. Scoreboard  - 7/31/02 - Final game of the regular season)
The last game of the regular season produced no umpires.  It will be recorded as an un-played game.

(Ale House vs. AGS / Trump - 7/29/02)
Although the Ale House was short players and most players were out of position, the game was crisp and quick.  Bill Saunders made the highlight reel by making a surprise appearance at second base and turning a double play. The final score was 1-0 in favor of AGS / Trump.

(Ale House vs. Emerald Club - 7/26/02)
It was a lethargic game.  The rain was coming down before the game and the Emerald Club showed up with eight players.  Although the Ale House certainly hit the ball, it must be put into perspective.  Highlighting the night however, was Ed Charette's towering home run to deep right field.  So say it was foul, others say it was of epic proportions.  The final score was 18-3.

(Ale House vs. Galley & Grog - 7/18/02)
The Ale House anticipated that they would be short players, but happily, ten players were able to make the game.  Bill Saunders went 2-2 with 2 RBI's.  Steve Williams, however, stole the show with some great fielding and excellent base running.  The Ale House probably had one of their best hitting games of the season. Ed Charette once again stepped up as the pitcher of record and helped himself out with the bat as well.  The final score was 10-8.

(Ale House vs. Sadie's Mud Dogs - 7/16/02)
The defense was crisp, except for the blinding sun, and the offense showed signs of life.  The score was 4-3 in the fifth and that's when the Ale House opened it up.  Once again Ed Charette pitched and this time he was rewarded with the win.  The final score was 10-5.

Back to Top

(Ale House vs. Ale House II - 7/15/02)
As always, the match up between the Ale House and Ale House II was competitive.  Although the Ale House was without any of their normal starting pitchers, Ed Charette pitch a strong last four innings.  It was the first two innings that ultimately would the difference.  The Ale House kept battling, yet could never get over the lead of the first few innings.  The final score was 15-10 in favor of the Ale House II.

Back to Top

(Ale House vs. Turmon's - 7/11/02)
The first game in a couple of weeks due to rain outs and the holiday produced a lackluster game.  The Ale House played with nine players.  The defense was good, even with a couple guys out of position, but the Ale House is still yet to get the offense together.  The highlight was a solo home run, followed up by a two run homer by Mike Bendon.  The final score was 10-8.

(Ale House vs. Main Street Grill/Bonded - 6/25/02)
The Ale House just can not seem to get it together.  A well played game, but the lack of offense is killing the Ale House.  The final score was 6-4 in favor of Main Street Grill/Bonded.

Back to Top

(Ale House vs. Emerald Club - 6/24/02)
The Ale House defense was crisp, producing 4 inning ending double plays.  However, the Ale House just couldn't get the bats started.  The final score was 2-1 in favor of Emerald Club.

Back to Top

(Ale House vs. Pip's Athletic Lounge - 6/19/02)
The Ale House started the game with eight players.  That statement alone should set the stage for the game.  It was a good old fashion butt whooping.  The final score was 1-0 in favor of Pip's Athletic Lounge.

(Ale House vs. Mahr's Place - 6/10/02)
The Ale House needed a base hit by Dennis Ned in bottom of 7th inning to secure the win. The final score was 9-8.

(Ale House vs. Scoreboard - 6/7/02)
Having just played the first game of a doubleheader and coming in on the wrong end, the Ale House came together and played strong softball.  It helps when you score twelve runs in the first inning.  The bats came alive and the defense was crisp.  This is naturally a formula for a win.  Mark Capano  pitched a strong game and Mike Bendon hit a three run homer.  The final score was 18-7.

Back to Top

(Ale House vs. Main Street Grill/Bonded - 6/7/02)
The Ale House was coming off a good win, but couldn't string the hits they needed, nor did the defense play as crisply as expected.  Brian Squires pitched well enough to win, but the Ale House didn't help much with the bats.  The final score was 8-4 in favor of Main Street Grill/Bonded.

Back to Top

(Ale House vs. Ale House II - 6/4/02)
When the Ale House plays the Ale House II, it is always a good competitive game.  Tonight was no different.  Mark Capano pitched a strong game, the defense was crisp and the offense produced when needed.  The Ale House jumped out to a 6-0 lead, but against the Ale House II that is never enough.  A quick rally by the Ale House II brought the score to 6-3, but the Ale House bounced back and re-captured the runs to maintain a solid lead.  The final score was 9-3.

(Ale House vs. Emerald Club - 5/31/02)

(Ale House vs. Turmon's - 5/28/02)
Serving suspensions for three players from the previous outing, the Ale House just never seemed to get in synch.  The Ale House was up 5-4 going into the top of the sixth, but Turmon's scored four and held the Ale House in the top of the seventh.  The final score was 9-7 in favor of Turmon's.

(Ale House vs. Valenti's Pub - 5/21/02)
The game was stopped.  Leave it at that...  Recorded as a loss for the Ale House.

(Ale House vs. Galley & Grog - 5/17/02)
The Ale House jumped out with four runs in the first and four runs in the second and that was all they needed to put up the first win of the season.  Although a lethargic game after the first two innings, the Ale House looks to get back on track and continue the winning tradition that has made the franchise what it is today.  The final score was 8-5.

The Ale House got thumped!  The final score was rumored to be 20-9 in favor of Sadie's Mud Dogs.

(Ale House vs. Mahr's Place - 5/6/02 - Opening Day)
Opening day for the Ale House didn't go as planned.  The team was rusty and the overall play wasn't up to the Ale House standards.  Although the Ale House jumped out with five runs in the first inning, the wheels never got going after that.  The final score was 10-9 in favor of Mahr's Place.
