Tangi Finance beats Hanna struction
By DUANE E. HARRIS
Sports Editor
Tangi Finance pulled home another
win over Hanna Construction Wednes-
day, May 15 by a score of 12-8.
"We thought it would be close but it
wasn't so tough," remarked Tangi
pitcher Jason Childers immediately
following the game in which Jason
pitched four of six innings for 10 walks,
four strike outs and allowed four base
hits.
Those 12 runs for Tangi were scored
by Jason Childers, Kyle Wolfe, Ben
Perrin, Trey Shockley, Josh Stilley,
Craig Nelson, Jeremy Schnell, Jeff
Douglas and Clint Hatfield.
At the plate for Tangi Kyle Wolfe,
Ben Penin and Josh Stilley led the team
in scoring with two runs each. Also
making the distance were Jason
Childers, Trey Shockley, Craig Nelson,
Jeremy Schnell, Jeff Douglas and Clint
Hatfield with one run each.
Adding to the whopping list of 12
straight RBI's were Trey Shockley, Josh
Stilley, Jeremy Schnell and Jeff
Douglas who led with two ribeyes each
How does a team score 12 runs on
five hits?
"They walked us," commented Tangi
secondary pitcher Kyle Wolfe who was
credited with pitching four strike outs in
the two innings he pitched Kyle based
his theory on the fact that Hanna
walked the Tangi team 13 times.
To everyone's surprise, Tangi walked
Hanna also. Tangi's pitchers walked 16
batters and allowed only five hits but

equaled 11 strike outs each.
"Our mistakes came at a critical
time," remarked coach Wayne Peltier
when his team fell behind in, the final
frame.
Through the combined efforts of four
pitchers, Hanna threw 16 walks and 11
strike outs. Like clockwork, Hanna sent
Chris Bowman, Steve Henderson, Brad
Womer and Jack Gabriel to the mound.
Aaron Navarre and Chris Thibo-
deaux were the high scorers with two

dria this past weekend. (But please do speak very softly).
Quote of the Week, Linda Poche of South Pass: "Oh, they were asking me
about that mermaid!"
Speaking of seafood, Rod and Penny down at Whitey's in The Ponchatoula
Mall have shrimps that just do not live up to their name - They're big!
And speaking of Manchac, Miss Willie Branch was spotted there with Joel
Smith and Jeanne Zaleski. (Did I see you on tiie water slide Sunday at Yogi
Bear Park?)
That's where this gator went to see what proved to be some sights.
Pinchpenny hit the pool in his lose-weight-or-else bikini (a near explosion of
laughter and flying fat). And ace hooper Lance Vitter was on hand to accept
his top sports honors dressed as a not all that bad looking girl. (I was a little
afraid of Yogi, but Boo-Boo looked like a nice snack).
Think there's a building boom going on? Hardy temporarily ran out of door
knobs this week. That means a whole lot of new walls have been going up,
the way I figure it. (l've got cage walls here at the pond for much the same
reason - humans).
Smitty, is it true son Butch got started with reptiles when, as a baby, you
gave him his first rattler instead of a rattle?
Why is Peck Edwards floating five feet above the roof of his tuna tower these
days (hint: she'sno fish).
Speaking of boats, ask Doc about the Gideon Navy.
Boat captain Bob Young came by the cage stone cold sober and told me the
most amazing story I have ever heard. He said that he rescued a deer in
trouble. (At first I too thought he just misspelled dear when he was speaking
to me, and since as you may or may not have noticed, this alligator is
somewhat unflappable, I wasn't really shook up by the fact the city's official
bagpiper rescued Bambi; big deal. But read on).
It seems Bambi was three miles out to sea off the shore in East Bay about 20
miles south of Venice. It was about 7 p.m. and Captain Bob was bringing in a
crew when he spotted the deer in her death throes. The oil men aboard had
other ideas. They lashed ropes around Bambi and brought her aboard, where
she lay in a heap, totally exhausted and unable to rise. After a long rest
ashore she was able to lick the rough hands that saved her before troting off to
high ground. Captain Bob told this reptile he thinks a swift offshore current
did the job on his dear friend.
Hey, something's been bothering me. Dad before me probably never
noticed because after awhile ole alligators like old humans just kinda get used
to their surroundings. Not so Junior!
Do you see that ugly ole utility pole outside my cage, the one with the ugly
dead viney bush clinging to it? You probably see it on human eye level, figure
it looks important, and walk on by, content that the blight at the front of my
cage is somehow necessary. It is not. Look up.
The pole is connected to absolutely nothing, except the ugly dead viney buh
again .... again
The pole is connected to absolutely nothing, except the ugly dead viney
bush that looks like the exact opposite of My Ponchatoula. It blocks the view
of the alligator and the Country Market and the mail Car Art Gallery and it is
ugly, ugly, ugly, and Jabo has a nifty chain saw (hint, hint).
There is one special girl who is always welcome at my cage (unless she
should be sitting in her desk at D.C. Reeves at the time). That's Sammy Lynn
Relan, Sambo's pride and joy, and Ole Hardhide's. (Stop by Ponchatoula
Feed & Seed, pick up a chick, and come on by for a visit honey, now that
school's about out.
runs each and Steve Henderson, Brad
Womer, Herman Newall and Clint
Mollere each added one.
Steve Henderson led the team in
RBI's with two and Aaron Navarre,
Chris Thibodeaux, Mike Smith and
Wade Peltier attributed one each to the
list.
Other Hanna players playing superior
ball were Chad Richard. Sonny
Harman, Bradley Milton, Clint Mollere
and John Green.
