A last hurrah at the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees

The final stop on our 11 stadium tour took the PBCC staff to PNC Field, the home of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees. We had a full schedule with 12 teams stepping up to the plate. Many of the batters had heard about the Derby through local press, and that helped to get the word out! Thank you to the Scranton Times-Tribune, WNEP-TV, and WBRE-TV for your help!

There was fierce competition amongst the teams. But check out the final standings:

PeoplesNational Bank Team 2 - 1,155 points
Wilkes University Team 1 - 1,100 points
Team Sen. Bob Mellow - 1,075 points
Wilkes University Team 2 - 910 points
Berwick High School - 815 points
S/WB Yankees Front Office - 730 points
First National Community Bank - 525 points
Scranton Times-Tribune - 485 points
PeoplesNational Bank Team 1 - 485 points
Scranton Federation of Teachers Team 1 - 380 points
Scranton Federation of Teachers Team 2 - 350 points
WNEP-TV - 340 points

Out of our 12 teams, we had a few home run hitters! Joe Ferretti from PeoplesNational Bank Team 2, Jim Davis from Team Sen. Bob Mellow, Randy Dengler from Wikes University Team 1, and Chris Wychock from Wilkes University Team 2 all hit a homer!

A HUGE thank you goes out to the countless number of volunteers from various organizations including Blue Cross of NEPA. Also, another thank you to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees for their hospitality! Check out all of the photos from Friday!

In a couple weeks I will get up a summary about the entire season! The final stats are still being tabulated!

That is all for now!
