It was a fierce competition on the sunny Friday, so check out how the teams stacked up!

The day was full of fun and batters of all ages came out to support the PBCC. The team representing Fleetwood Bank brought their own pitcher to throw softballs to the batters. While the softballs didn’t fly as far as a normal baseball, the team still finished with a great score! Congratulations ladies!
Our winning team from Chesapeake Energy had two batters that each took 30 swings. During his time at bat, Nick Aspromonte hit two home runs! And single batter John Furlong also knocked one out of the park during his time at the plate! And a homer by Dante Cutrona from the Berks Bar Association. Congratulations fellas!
With the end in sight, the derby crew looks forward to compiling all of the scores to create the statewide team leaderboard in addition to the statewide winner for our single batters. In the meantime, check out the pictures from the 11th and final stop of the 2010 derby!
HI Kevin,
Was wondering if you give a pink bat to the single batter winner? I think my hubby, Bill Klenoshek could be a contender! He had 600 points in the Washington Wild Things stadium on a hot hot hot July 8th morning!
He’d really like the bat for his man cave!
