Nebesny, Ochoa, Palmer lead Team Blue to TOTS' win; Tolson hits 4th homer

 Tucson Old Timers (TOTS)

60-and-over baseball



Leadoff batter Ken Nebesny (above photo) went 3 for 5, reached base five times and scored each time to lift Team Blue to a 10-3 win over Team White today at Udall Park in a 60-and-over Tucson Old Timers game. 

The game belonged to Team Blue except for the first inning when Thunder Tim Tolson hit his fourth home run of the season -- a two-run shot over the right field fence. David Byars knocked in the third run in the third inning on a fielder's choice play and that was it for Team Blue.

In the meantime, it was a hard-luck outing for Team White's Bob Daliege. There were plenty of infield errors and when the Team Blue hitters did get the bat on the ball, the ball seemed to find a hole. In short, plenty of bloopers and opposite field hits. A frustrating day for Team White.

Mike Dawson went the distance and picked up the win.

Jesse Ochoa had four hits on the day and the hard-hitting Reed Palmer had three hits and drove in five runs.

Team White had just six hits off Dawson. Newcomer Glen Vann hit a booming double to center during the last at bats for Team White.

The TOTS hope to close out the week with another game on Friday at Udall. Warmups at 9 a.m. and the first pitch is slated for 10 a.m.
