Despite hitting three homeruns, the mighty captains of industry couldn't beat the more radical lineup of the 60s tribe. The Woodsox, behind the solid hitting efforts of David Dellinger, Oscar Janiger, Malcolm X and Lee Harvey Oswald, looped the streaking Capitalists, who had won four in a row until this game.
Phil Ochs, Woodsox closer, notched another save as the Woodsox pitching staff exceeds everyone's expectations. Woodsox manager, John Lennon, affectionately called "your highness" by his players because of all the marijuana he chews during the games, expressed satisfaction with the team's recent performance. Despite the fact that he has been criticized for not providing enough discipline, the Woodsox are faring well in the Cosmic Middle League.
Capitalists owner, Michael Jordan, attended the game during a break from his NBA playoff work. Rumors have been circulating that Jordan plans to sell the Capitalists at the end of the current season; but who he's talking to is unknown.
The Capitalists are doing well this year, solid hitting and good pitching have kept them competitive. Contrary to the Woodsox, the Capitalists are one of the most disciplined and regimented teams in the Middle League.
