Sunrise Manor Loss Tarnishes Fine Game by Birchfield
The Chuluota Imperials withstood a fine game by Sunrise Manor center fielder Chris Birchfield at Field of the Sunchasers, to upend the Sunchasers, 17-14. Birchfield was 4 for 7 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 3 and driving in 4. The misery continues for the Sunchasers, who have now dropped 11 in a row.

The Imperials took advantage of an error in the top of the first inning. Chuluota was leading 1-0 when Hisamichi Matsumoto hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put the Imperials in front, 3-0.

"They're fun to watch and the hitters get to pad their stats but nobody's really happy about a game like that," Chuluota manager Larry Voltaire. "I promise you I'm not happy."
