In top "A" League action on Tuesday and Thursday nights, league leading "My Bar" dropped their first game to Hooters 17-12 to fall to 6-1, but then got back to their winning ways against E.N.T. Allergy to move to 7-1 and stay on top of their league.

Both "A" and "B" Leagues play their schedule's on Tuesdays and Thursdays while the less experienced "C" League plays on Mondays and Wednesdays. Although this week there will be many games going on Friday due to rain-outs.

That's not to say the action is any less intense in the "C" League as the two top teams, Buffalo Wild Wings and Rau Cleaning had a scoring duel last Monday night with Rau coming out on top of the 13-11 battle. Rau is now in sole possession of first place in the "C" League. "Those girls are not real softball players they just throw on their short shorts and go out and act like their playing because their boyfriends play down there," said Whitney Babcock who plays in the "A" League for Bell Bar. Babcock played college ball at SVSU and her team has won the top league 3 out the last 4 years.

Amber Pudvan of Rau Cleaning readies herself for the pitch. "My team mates say I look like a porn star when I'm batting," Pudvan said.

In the "B" League Wolverine Appraisal dropped two games last week to fall to 1-7. Thirteen year Softball Board member Beth Bradley plays short-stop for Wolverine. (Eleven years active with a two year break through the past thirteen years) "Three teams are vying for the lead in the "B" League, but its not us," said Bradley recently during a phone interview.

There's always one on every team who cheers the most and the loudest, can you pick who it is?
