Xaverian HS players (top) celebrated their city Catholic High School Athletic Association championship victory over Moore Catholic last Sunday at St. John’s University where the Clippers beat the Maverics 7–1.

A few days later (below), Brooklyn Paper Señor Editor Vince DiMiceli was gunned down in a (fairly) close play in the Scribes charity game loss to the Cyclones front office.

The mostly out-of-shape writers actually gave the ’Clones staffers a scare, losing 6–5, after rallying in the final frame. Alas, the game ended on a deep (deep!) fly ball to center field that was snared in a miracle catch.

Paper Editor Gersh Kuntzman was 0–2 on the day, mostly due to an umpire with an extremely generous strike zone. In their second annual “24 Hours of Baseball” charity event, the Clones front office won some and lost some, but the team did raise $15,000 for charity.
