Crosstown rivalries are great unless you can't root for either team. I grew up in Fairfield and graduated from Warde back before the merger and divestiture that resulted in Fairfield Warde and Fairfield Ludlowe. But my sons make us a Ludlowe family now. So, when I shoot one of these games I want a great contest, a pitching duel with titanic homeruns and brilliant defense, that ends with both teams able to hold their heads high. Last night? Not so much. It wasn't that there weren't good plays its just that they didn't mean anything.

Ludlowe's Tyler Bulkley applies the tag as Warde's Dario Pugliano is caught stealing early in the game. Warde went on to win 14-6

The final score was 14-6 (Warde won) but in reality it was never that close.

Check back in a day or so because I'll be loading lots more pictures from the game are now online: www.slevino.com/Sports/baseball/FLHS-20110421-Fairfield-Warde/16734764_8shBHk.
